Forgotten History

Gut Vehr

Lower Saxony, Germany

Gut Vehr is a former castle and defense system on the northwestern outskirts of Quakenbrück and is now part of the urban area together with the Hengelage district. Thanks to the swing golf course, the estate is known throughout Germany among those who practice this sport. Already mentioned in the 13th century, Gut Vehr initially served as a castle and defensive complex and was later used as a fortified courtyard surrounded by a moat. In 1522 the von Schmerten family owned the estate, and in 1540 it passed to von Grothaus through marriage.
