Castle Brederode, Medieval castle ruins in Santpoort-Zuid, Netherlands.
The stone fortress includes defensive walls, towers, and a moat surrounding the rectangular layout of the thirteenth-century structure.
William I van Brederode established the castle in 1285, starting with a single tower before expanding it into a complete fortification by 1300.
The castle represents the power of the House of Brederode, descendants of the Lords of Teylingen and related to the Counts of Holland.
Visitors can explore the castle ruins from March to November, with guided tours available on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
The castle became the first national monument of the Netherlands during the nineteenth century, leading preservation efforts across the country.
