Me in the castle park of House Weitmar - Bochum

Not far from the Weitmarer wood, behind the big old trees of the castle park Weitmar, are two historic architectural monuments which take a significant position in the history of Bochum: the castle ruin of House Weitmar and the Sylvesterchapel.

Opposite the ruins is the exhibition "Situation Kunst" (situation art), which opens in 1990.

Never heard of the place, thanks for sharing. Yet again highlights the folly of war.
