Schloss Bensberg in Bergisch Gladbach, North Rhine-Westphalia, is a Baroque hunting lodge that was converted into a luxury hotel, the Althoff Grandhotel Schloss Bensberg. Built in 1997 and designed by architect Matteo Alberti, the castle complex features a remarkable spatial relationship with Cologne Cathedral, its central axis precisely aligned with the distant cathedral. Now designated as an architectural heritage monument in North Rhine-Westphalia, the castle exemplifies both historical significance and contemporary hospitality use.
