Wölpe Castle is the stable of a medieval lowland castle in Erichshagen-Wölpe, a district of Nienburg/Weser in Lower Saxony. The castle of the Counts of Wölpe, first mentioned in a document in 1151, was built on the stream of the Wölpe as a tower hill castle on a mound of earth. As a result of warlike events, the castle complex was destroyed and rebuilt several times. After the Thirty Years' War, the complex was rebuilt as the official seat of the Wölpe district. After the dissolution of the office in 1859, all buildings were demolished due to dilapidation. Today, the castle hill is free of buildings and covered with trees. After archaeological prospection measures in 2011, excavations have been carried out regularly since then.
