Styrum Castle

A jewel in the north of Mülheim: Styrum Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1067. For a long time it was owned by the counts of Limburg-Styrum. In 1890, August Thyssen bought the little castle. In the course of the regional garden show in 1992 it got completely renovated. Today, it houses a restaurant, a daycare centre for senior-citizens and some workrooms for artists. Inside its small but lovely castle park, visitors can also find an old water tower that is now home to the distinguished water museum “Aquarius”.
