Schloss Nordkirchen, often called the "Westphalian Versailles," is a stunning baroque palace surrounded by expansive gardens and waterways. It's a popular destination for leisurely strolls and admiring the architecture. The palace grounds are generally accessible, but interior tours may have limited accessibility. You can explore the gardens independently, enjoying the sculptures and landscaping at your own pace, or opt for a guided tour to learn about the palace's history and design. Seasonal restrictions may apply to certain garden areas or events. Entrance to the gardens is typically free, but guided tours of the palace may have a fee, approximately €5-€10. A typical visit to the gardens can last 2-3 hours, while a combined garden and palace tour might take 3-4 hours.
