Schloss Raesfeld is a water castle in Raesfeld, in the district of Borken in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, and is protected as an architectural heritage monument. Its history reaches back to the early 12th century, and in the mid-17th century Imperial Count Alexander II von Velen converted it into a Renaissance-style residential palace. After the Second World War it was restored and today houses a further education facility of the Chambers of Crafts. Its adjoining zoo is one of the few from the Renaissance period still surviving.
