Husen Castle
Husen Castle is the medieval residential tower of a castle in the Syburg district of Dortmund, North Rhine-Westphalia.
The origins of the complex date back to the 13th century. The current form of the residential tower dates from the 17th century. It is listed as a monument in the monument list of the city of Dortmund.
The property belonging to Syburg, with meadows and trees, is about 7000 m² in size and is located in the Dortmund-Schwerte-Hagen city triangle.
The Association of Christian Guides and Scouts (VCP) Land Westfalen took over the castle in 1984 and uses it as a youth holiday home with a youth campsite.
