Geijsteren Castle, Castle ruin in Geijsteren, Netherlands.
Geijsteren Castle is a castle ruin near the Maas river with restored entrance bridges crossing two moats. The stone walls still show the foundation structure of the original fortress.
The castle was first mentioned in 1251 and originally belonged to the Van Straelen family. Over centuries it passed through several noble families before ending up with the De Weichs de Wenne.
The gatehouse displays photographs from before the 1944 bombing, helping visitors understand how the castle looked in its earlier days. These images connect the ruins to their original state.
You can reach the grounds from Maasheseweg and follow walking paths to various viewing points. The access is straightforward and the paths are well marked throughout.
The estate spans around 700 hectares of land, blending the castle ruins with natural landscapes. The Geijsterse beek stream joins the Maas river at this location.
