Schloss Rheydt

Pasqualini renovated in the style of his father, adding casemates and bastions and creating a moat around the palace.

Pasqualini also considerably renovated the interior by adding fireplaces, statues, and various paintings.

However, the owners were unable to maintain the palace due to the upkeep costs.

From the years of 1933 to 1945 Joseph Goebbels was an honorary citizen of Rheydt and frequently would live there over that period of time.

[3] Since then the palace has undergone some restoration (1988–1993) and vast parts of Schloss Rheydt have been converted into museum areas and reopened.
