Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Wahrscheinlich wurde die Burg um 1110 von den Brüdern Adolf und Eberhard von Berg oberhalb der Lenne auf dem Wulfseck erbaut. Ihr erste Name war Wulfshagen. Später wurde sie in Altena umgenannt. Seit 1392 hatten dann die Grafen von der Mark, so der neue Name ihren Hauptwohnsitz aus dem rauen Sauerland in die Burg Mark bei Hamm verlegt. Einer Legende nach soll der Name Altena vom niederhochdeutschen Ausdruck ‚all te na‘ herrühren, was soviel bedeutet wie ‚all zu nah‘. Den Grafen von Arnsberg war die neue Burg einfach "all zu nah". Probably the castle was built around 1110 by brothers Adolf and Eberhard von Berg above the Lenne on the Wulfseck. The first name was Wulfhagen. Later it was renamed in Altena. Since 1392 the then Earl von der Mark so the new name, moved from the harsch Sauerland to the castle Mark near Hamm. According to legend, the name Altena is coming from an old German expression, "all te na" which means, much too close. Count of Arnsberg was the new castle just "much too close".
