The Gudenau, modestly called "Burg", is actually a romantic baroque castle in the Bachaue near the village of Villip. The park is open from March to December. The picturesque ensemble of buildings can be viewed from a field path outside opening hours with a vantage point to the east of the property. The noble seat got its baroque form in the 17th century. This also included the spacious Italian park – the only private baroque garden in the Rhineland that is still preserved today.

The moated castle of Gudenau was built in the 13th century, and the gardens were expanded under Italian influence in the 17th century. Today the castle itself is privately owned, but you can visit the park: from March to December 20, Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.; the park is closed on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

A moated castle was built here in the 13th century.
After various conversions (1560, 16th and 17th centuries) the current appearance emerged.
