Maximilian, Prince (Fürst) of Bentheim-Tecklenburg is the lord (Schlossherr) of Schloss Rheda in Rheda-Wiedenbrück [1][2]. The castle's website describes Schloss Rheda as the residence of the Fürst zu Bentheim-Tecklenburg [3].
In November 2019 Die Glocke reported on his restoration of the Rötteken-Palais in Rheda, once home to senior princely officials, and on two new buildings beside it, which he said should become something like "the second castle of Rheda" [1]. In March 2026 the paper reported his plans, presented to the Rheda local history society, to open the family's collection of historic carriages to the public [2].
Note on sources. These sources call him Fürst and lord of the castle but do not explicitly call him head of the house. The year of birth (1969) comes from GOTHA's database (Wikidata) only; these sources do not state it.
