About the Moyland Castle

Moyland Castle is a moated castle in Bedburg-Hau in the district of Kleve , one of the most important neo-Gothic buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia. Its name derives from the Dutch word Moiland which means "beautiful country". The name was probably coined by Dutch workers, which the former owner Jacob van den Eger of the Lower Rhine had brought to his property to drain the surrounding wetlands.

Today it houses a Moyland Museum containing an extensive collection of modern art of the brothers van der Grinten and is a popular destination on the Lower Rhine    .

1307 is the first time that a fortified farm called Moyland is documented with ditches and ramparts. In that year the priest and later Archdeacon of Liège, Jacob van den Eger accepted the investment of Count Otto von Kleve in annual lease . The teacher then later called the children of the count "of Moyland".

15 years later the estate was purchased from Roland von Hagedorn by Dietrich VIII von Kleve who also renewed the fief in 1339. The relevant instrument is the first time that Castle Moyland is documented.

Until the second half of the 17th Century there followed frequent changes of ownership inheritance, which ended in 1662, when the Brandenburg Field Marshal Alexander von Spaen purchased the fief.

His descendant Wilhelm von Spaen sold the now a rebuilt castle in 1695 to the then Brandenburg electors, and later Prussian King Friedrich I. He used Moyland primarily as a hunting lodge, and also as a love nest. His affair with the 17-year-old Emmericher citizen's daughter Katharina Rycker was made mention of at the Prussian court.

In 1840 during one of his many stays in the castle, the Prussian King Frederick II met with the philosopher Voltaire. Together they developed the idea of "truth Factory", a philosopher Academy, which should be set up at the Castle Moyland.

In 1766 the estate came into the possession of the Dutch family of von Steengracht. Adrian von Steengracht received the castle as compensation for loans made to the Prussian royal family in the Seven Years War.

Moyland remained in the possession of Steengracht until the 11th July 1990 when the Castle Moyland Museum Foundation was formed with the objective of rebuilding the facility for use as a museum. The owners had long been seeking suitable funding for a rebuild. The decisive impetus for the creation of the Foundation in 1987 was provided by the brothers Franz Joseph van der Grinten and Hans van der Grinten who were looking for a site for their private collection of modern art. On 24 May 1997 the completely renovated buildings and the gardens were reopened.
