"the dyck, in jüchen in the circle of the new, owns, if one thinks of the glorious pastness of this thing, an enormous free time value, because it has a charming landscape park, as well as a former castle whose walls could tell stories, from which one can read at most in books. but on the second look, it doesn't seem as fantastic as it appears on the photos. that is the variant, for those who do not like long performances, but for the rest I would like to introduce some explanations. the most terrible thing when I mention this horrortrip, as my companion calls it, was the trip, that is a single catastrophe! if you need it, you can come to the weekend (as my sense has been, you can really forget it, because it comes 1 2 times a day and that in both directions almost at the same time! with car you can theoretically come by any time and every day (known except Monday, if you want to see the interiors. I checked all the way, no matter how remote they were, even with considerably longer trips, no chance! from the ground it gets for the achievability 1 point, because even in the week it is hardly better ordered: we were suspected by the bus driver that we wanted to drive black, despite a valid ticket! this has not just increased our laune! this is not taken into account in the evaluation, because it can happen everywhere. to get to the way there, it is a cheerful thing that this holding place is only a few times controlled on the day! I am surprised how to win potential visitors with such a lack of feeling or better said cooperation with local transport companies. it certainly goes much better! if you had left this hurdle behind you, you have to take a walk of about 10 minutes, which also has in itself, because at our last visit not even 2 years ago, this did not seem inviting, it may have changed, for which I can forgive 2 stars, but they are not included. if you finally managed to do it, please pay: 9 €, already a proud amount! reduced there is the whole for 6 €. other prices please take below: [here link]. every one of us was really excited about what was offered to us there. the park is out of my sight the secret star at the visit of this unique ensemble: in a wide sharing he still looks as it had been the former lock masters: an English landscape park. because the forst joseph maria franz zu salm reifferscheidt dyck was also botanically interested, it is not surprising that he had planted korea pappel or the consecrated tree here in the Rhineland as one of the first, among others mammut tree, sumpfzypresse and tulpen tree. they exist until today. for reasons of time, we have looked at few corners of the park, but what we have seen from the old pass is worth 4 stars. the actual park is in modern style: since 2005 this areal belongs to the supra-regional project, which is intended to bring maas and rhein closer together, a euro garden was created. a symbiosis between art and nature is to be created. no bed in the cornfield, as it is in my head (short ohrwurm, but meter-high blocks that deceived, as well as rusted metal objects, whose purpose is not visible to me at best. Besides the plant boxes, which were assembled according to certain patterns, I still found best. for the entire impression of this part now come 2 stars. on this part I was most happy that dyck made myself! Previously, it was just a few forgot to get it to face. as already mentioned by far very magnificent, but at first there was something above their history: at this place there was a deich that wore the name dyck. the kelzenbach, flowing here, was built into a lake. in the year 1094, behind it was built by man of dyck a castle. their descending conrad exaggerated it to the duke purelyald of leaner than lehen, which happened in 1349. the robbery was accused of gerard of dyck and the castle was dragged as a punishment by the lehnsherrn. that happened in 1395, since then this country belongs to the already mentioned family to salm reifferscheidt dyck. For 900 years, it remained the same, but since 1999 it has been transformed into a foundation for garden art and landscape culture. Already when we approached the little island where the baroque castle from the 17th century approached, we have perceived very poor noise levels, but we have thought that it can be at most temporary impairments! but it has turned out to be an error, for the restoration work has been full in mind; it can not be as bad as to take the things as they are. when we came in, there was a murrical old man and he cried out something that I felt as entry cards, but without these we would not have come to the ground, already strange, because they would act the crucifix when entering the ground! the early baroque residency was built in the years 1656 to 1667 by the graf salentin from the castle to a four-wing plant, the economic buildings below the scheune were already erected from 1647 and the beer flour six years later, as well as the reitstall and the watch room. a century later it will be representatively designed to meet the high rank of the graphic, it has been at the time a popular meeting point of the young nobles of the region. if one imagines the one time and their attraction, then one must realize that it is a further away from there. to many places the tooth of time has cut, both inside and outside. Since it was built as a water lock, numerous mediums had to be used here in recent years, so that the moisture can not spread further in the masonry. the frescoes were mostly only to be seen at our visit, because even at them the time did not go without trace. the room that is still best preserved, one of the private cabins in the ground floor with the valuable embossed leather apee, I liked it well, because it reminded me of that verfelung in the hamburger rathaus, but this is about a few centuries older! because it is very sensitive, the shutters are closed and it is only minimally illuminated. another room has thrilled me: the library in which my whole apartment would fit several times pure; most books were hardly older than 50 100 years, which were mainly concerned with the animal world. the everywhere, so cheerful Chinese painting works, which appear very large on the photos, was nothing special for me, because I have seen better. Overall, there are so far as I am quite absurd at this level 5 6 rooms that we had quickly behind us, but in the next stage a small cultural shock, because there are modern artists working here, which was against our expectations. because we couldn't really get friends with it, we left quite fast. if I have to make a total assessment for the lock, then it gets very comfortable 2 stars, because it is not a pleasure to run through a site where you have to fear that you are threatening to fall the proverbial deck on the head. overall we were quite disappointed, the overall assessment would run direction 2.5, but as 3 seems too high, considering the circumstances that prevailed at our visit I am only going 2! it is also unlikely that another visit will follow. However, those who want to enjoy the park are the various events that take place regularly here, the dates are announced in time, popular is always the Christmas market. in interest to look pure here: [here link] I found on the homepage the following opening times: march October Monday is basically closed no matter which season! park 10 18 h lock di fr 14 18 we u celebrate 12 18 oktober märz that locknot can only feel on we & celebrates 12 17 park each 10 17 h actually bad that has closed really on a better potential look at me"
