House Visbeck

The former manor of Haus Visbeck still has an air of mystery about it today. Nestled in the Dernekamp district of Dülmen and idyllically situated on the edge of the forest, the estate exudes a very special charm. The historic atmosphere and the romantic chapel make Haus Visbeck a popular venue for markets, cultural events and conferences.

But don't forget that the property is privately inhabited. Please respect the privacy of the owners. The courtyard, garden and meadow are accessible during events. St Mary's Chapel is open on Sundays and public holidays and can be visited. You are also welcome to admire the house from a distance.

The chapel as the last testimony

The moated castle, which was first mentioned in a document in 1338, was named after the honourable men of Visbeck, who had the proud estate built on two islands. After a fire in the 17th century, only part of the outer bailey and the Lady Chapel remain from the once spacious fortifications. In its original form, the latter was an octagonal wooden chapel from the 16th century. Today's brick chapel was very probably built according to the plans of the famous Baroque master builder Johann Conrad Schlaun around 1749.

Joachim Heines and Georg Wierichs bring together
the very best in handpan music. In their pieces
, they combine rhythmic
precision with catchy melodies in a unique way. This gives rise to
musical stories; sometimes clearly arranged, sometimes
fluidly improvised – and always captivating and
moving.

On 7 November 2026, the area around Haus Visbeck in Dülmen will be transformed into an exciting venue for sled dog racing. The 5th Visbeck Sled Dog Race will take place between Seppenrade and Dülmen, right next to the B 474.

The Münsterland Sled Dog Sports Club (Schlittenhundesportverein Münsterland e. V.) is delighted to welcome around 140 participants this weekend, who will be competing with their four-legged friends in various categories. It won’t just be huskies on the course, but also breeds such as hounds, Australian Shepherds, Malinois and many more.

Please note that due to the weather, there may be last-minute changes to the programme. To make the most of the spectacle , we recommend arriving early and checking the exact times in advance at events.raceresult.com.

There will be a short break in the racing at lunchtime. Whilst adult visitors can use this time to browse the stalls selling dog accessories, younger visitors can give free rein to their creativity with some craft activities.


Once the last competitor has crossed the finish line – expected to be around 3 pm – young guests aged 12 and under will have the chance to take part in a children’s race.

The event will then conclude on Sunday at around 4 pm with the prize-giving ceremony.

Admission is free.

If you wish to bring your dog, please note that guest dogs are not permitted in the musher camp or on the race track. Otherwise, dogs must be kept on a short lead throughout the entire event site and must have valid vaccination certificates. This is the only way to ensure the safety of all dogs.

4 Tips for the Visbeck House

  • On 50 square metres, Haus Visbeck offers an exclusive conference room in the middle of the idyllic Münsterland park landscape - including a supporting programme with cow cuddling, if desired.
  • You can explore the area around Dülmen by bike and take advantage of the beautiful Welter Bach nature reserve and the nearby ponds in the Heubachniederung for lovely resting and picnic moments.
  • The forest, heathland and meadow areas and the wild horse enclosure with more than 300 free-roaming horses in the Merfelder Bruch make your ride into the countryside a unique experience.
  • The grave of Anna Katharina Emmerick, who was canonised, had mystical visions and lived through the Passion of Christ several times, is famous and well worth seeing.
