Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Wahrscheinlich wurde die Burg um 1110 von den Brüdern Adolf und Eberhard von Berg oberhalb der Lehne auf dem Wulfseck erbaut. Ihr erste Name war Wulfshagen. Später wurde sie in Altena umgenannt. Seit 1392 hatten die Grafen von der Mark, so der neue Name ihren Hauptwohnsitz aus dem rauen Sauerland in die Burg Mark bei Hamm verlegt. Von da an war die Burg Altena nur noch Amtmannsitz. Später war die Burg preußische Garnison und ein Krankenhaus. Auf Betreiben des Landrates Fritz Thomée wurde 1906 der Märkische Burgenverein gegründet der sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hatte, die stark verfallene Anlagen wieder aufzubauen. Die Arbeiten wurden 1918 abgeschlossen. 1914 gründete Richard Schürmann in den Gemäuern der Burg die erste Jugendherberge der Welt. Diese Räume sind heute noch zu besichtigen und gehören zum Museum der Burg. Heute gehört die Burg der Stadt Altena und beherbergt mehrere Museen. 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".
