Rettershof Castle (Kelkheim)

The small castle was built in 1884, initially as the residence of the Barons von Dieskau, in the English Tudor style on a hill north of the manor house. Sandstone and rock from the Vordertaunus served as building material. After being used by various owners, the city of Kelkheim converted it into a hotel in the early 1980s. For this purpose, a bronze-roofed hotel wing with 35 guest rooms was added on the southern slope, connected to the main building by a glass connecting corridor. The new domicile was opened in 1984 as Schlosshotel Rettershof.
