Experiences at Haus Visbeck

In the centre of Münsterland, surrounded by old trees and green meadows, lies Haus Visbeck: a historic manor house with a unique character.

What was once a manor house is now a lively place for meetings, events and experiences close to nature. Whether it's a castle concert in the Visbeck chapel, a cow cuddle with a picnic in the meadow or a medieval market - there's always something going on at Haus Visbeck in Dülmen! Discover exciting offers and events here. Book them directly here on the site.

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.

Cow cuddling with Münsterland picnic box

Owner Britta is firmly rooted in the Münsterland region: life at Haus Visbeck has characterised her for over 20 years. Her Dexter cattle are her personal favourite project. The trusting animals are at the centre of a special experience: cuddling cows in the pasture. Britta accompanies the encounter with great sensitivity for people and animals, explains the behaviour of the animals and creates a safe space for slowing down. Afterwards, there is a delicious Münsterland picnic with regional products and non-alcoholic drinks! The picnic box (for two people) from Dülmen Marketing e.V. is also available as a vegetarian option on request.

  • Duration: approx. 2 hours
  • Participation: from 14 years
  • Group size: 8 - 10 people
  • Parking: free of charge directly on site
  • No alcohol allowed (not even in the picnic basket)

Cow & Art

“Cows & Art” combines encounters with animals, nature and artistic creation in the unique atmosphere of Haus Visbeck.
The day begins with a visit to the Dexter meadow. The encounter with the cattle, the vastness of the grounds and the tranquillity of the historic manor provide inspiration. Afterwards, you will work on your own artwork under the guidance of Dülmen-based artist Ulrike Illner . You will paint with acrylics on canvas. Beginners can work with prepared motifs using the stencil technique. More advanced participants are given scope for free creation and individual forms of expression. In between, there is time for walks or another visit to the cows. At the end of the day, you take your finished work of art home with you.

  • Start: Saturday 11 am or Wednesday 4 pm
  • Duration: 4 hours
  • Materials included (canvas 30x30 cm or 30x40 cm, acrylic paints, brushes, stencil designs)
  • Minimum age: 14
  • Food: Please bring your own. Cold drinks are available on site on a self-service basis.
  • Note: Please bring an old shirt or smock!

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.
