Ledenhof

The Ledenhof, a historic building in Osnabrück, Germany, was originally the residence of the noble von Leden family during the medieval period. First mentioned in 1499, it features a remarkable seven-storey stone structure known as the Steinwerk, dating back to the 14th century, and a grand hall built in the 15th century. The site has undergone significant renovations, earning the Europa Nostra Award in 1980, and now serves as the main office of the Deutsche Stiftung Friedensforschung. Visitors can explore its medieval architecture and learn about its rich history, including its past as a potential mint and its transformation over the centuries.
