Huis te Vliet, Medieval château in Lopikerkapel, Netherlands
The castle ruin stands 9.5 meters high on the southern bank of the Hollandsche IJssel river, featuring remnants of a north-facing keep structure.
Gerrit van den Vliet established the castle in the late 13th century and later reconciled with Count Willem II to regain his possessions around Oudewater.
The château represents medieval Dutch defensive architecture and remains a testament to the historical nobility of the Utrecht region in the Netherlands.
The castle ruin sits on private farmland with restricted access, surrounded by cycling and hiking routes connecting various points of interest.
Archaeological excavations near the site revealed previously unknown bailey remains, indicating the castle complex was larger than the visible ruins suggest.
