From the railway station in Burgsteinfurt, this route leads directly into the history of the Münsterland region. The magnificent moated castle of Steinfurt marks the start, followed by a relaxed walk through the Bagno Park. An architectural curiosity awaits at the Renaissance manor house Haus Alst: the walls consist of alternating layers of red brick and light-coloured Baumberg sandstone. This construction method is affectionately known here as Specklagen, as it is reminiscent of streaky Westphalian ham. Further south in Horstmar, the preserved Burgmannshöfe (manor houses) bear witness to the town's former defences.
