Majestically, Homburg Castle towers over the Homburg region, surrounded by forests and meadows.
Discover history, experience culture, and try new things together – that's what Homburg Castle stands for. The historic castle complex in Nümbrecht, steeped in centuries of history, is owned by the Oberbergischer Kreis district and is today a meeting place with exhibitions, events, and creative activities for all generations. 

 The museum at Homburg Castle has existed since 1926 and houses an extremely diverse collection of over 20.000 cultural and historical objects related to the Oberbergisches Land region, which are displayed in rotating exhibitions within the castle. In addition, regular events take place. 
Special exhibitions on various topics take place. The museum offers a wide range of educational formats, from guided tours to children's birthday parties.  

The diverse programs at the Museum Workshop at Homburg Castle offer creative activities throughout the year: from varied holiday programs for children to inspiring after-work workshops for adults, there's something for everyone. The focus here is on the joy of creating together.  

Events such as concerts and open-air festivals regularly take place in the orangery and on the castle grounds.
Events take place throughout the castle grounds. Whether classical music, jazz, Kölsch rock, or the traditional medieval market – the program is as diverse as the audience. The Oberberg Biological Station, also located on the grounds, offers a variety of events around Homburg Castle. Furthermore, selected rooms at Homburg Castle can be rented for private events such as birthdays and weddings.  
The cultural site of Homburg Castle connects history with the present – ​​and above all, people.
