Borgholzhausen

Borgholzhausen is a small town in the Gütersloh district of North Rhine-Westphalia, on the southern slope of the Teutoburg Forest. Above it stands the castle of Ravensberg, from which the counts of Ravensberg took their name in the 12th century. The county later passed to Jülich-Berg and, in the 17th century, to Brandenburg-Prussia.
