The Hardewykenburg was built in 1480, but is not a typical castle in the true sense of the word. The building is a stone house and consists of a large
residential tower, the walls of which are about one meter thick.
The "castle" was built by the East Frisian chief Hajo Unken.
The castle is still owned by the family today and serves as a residence.
Unfortunately, a tour is only possible from the outside!

Traditionally, the Harderwykenburg is also known as the "First House of Leer".
The Harderwykenburg, built around 1470, has been privately owned by the counts of Innhausen and Knyphausen (Bodelschwingh-Plettenberg) for over 220 years.
