Arnsberg

Arnsberg is best known in North Rhine-Westphalia for the ruins of Schloss Arnsberg, the hilltop residence of the medieval Counts of Arnsberg. The River Ruhr loops around the old town, whose streets rise from the valley toward the wooded hills of the Sauerland. In 1368, the county passed to the archbishops of Cologne, and Arnsberg became an administrative centre of the Duchy of Westphalia. The city remains the seat of the Arnsberg district government, while the Sauerland-Museum presents regional history and art in the historic Landsberger Hof.
