Kasteel Renswoude, 17th-century castle in Renswoude, Netherlands
The rectangular castle rises two stories high with slate-covered gable roofs, two corner towers, and a central five-story square tower topped with a gilded ball.
Built in 1654 by Johan van Reede, the castle replaced a fortified house and features Hollands-classicistic architecture designed by Ghijsbert Theunisz van Vianen and Peter Jansz van Cooten.
The castle interior preserves numerous 17th-century elements, including a notable kitchen fireplace, pump house, and stucco ceilings depicting mythological scenes.
Monthly guided tours occur on Tuesdays at 14:00, requiring advance registration through the Renswoude library for groups of 10 to 20 people at €9 per person.
The castle grounds contain a 900-meter-long grand canal and 60 hectares of forest with 150-year-old deciduous trees, home to deer and various bird species.
