Bad Iburg, Germany
Schventorf Castle is a former moated castle in the Renaissance style and a former manor in Bad Iburg (Lower Saxony). Part of the castle complex, built around 1552, is considered the oldest existing half-timbered structure in the Osnabrück region.

The priest and writer Bernhard Köster created a literary monument to her in a historical novel published in 1924.
