Wijnandsrade Motte, Medieval motte-and-bailey castle in Beekdaelen, Netherlands.
The castle site contains three wings arranged around a courtyard, with a western wing dating back to 1554 and additional sections built between 1717 and 1719.
The original fortification, first mentioned in the 12th century, was abandoned when gunpowder made its defensive capabilities obsolete, leading to construction of a new castle.
The structure received designation as a Rijksmonument in 1965, marking its status as a protected national heritage site of the Netherlands.
Located at Opfergeltstraat 3 in Wijnandsrade, the castle grounds include the original motte structure and newer buildings that now serve as offices and apartments.
In 1872, the castle transformed into a Jesuit seminary, developing into a center of education and research before changing ownership in the early 20th century.
