Schloss Haag

Schloss Haag is a castle in Geldern with two remaining outer buildings from different construction periods. These structures combine baroque architectural details from the 17th century with neo-gothic elements added during the 19th century.

The site was first documented in 1337 and developed over many centuries as a fortified estate. It later attracted visits from notable leaders including Frederick the Great, Napoleon Bonaparte, Alexander I, and William I.

The Van Hoensbroeck family made this their primary home and shaped the estate for generations. The remaining outer buildings still reflect the lifestyle and choices of this noble family across different centuries.

The grounds now operate as a golf club with a driving range and 18-hole course. Access to the property may be limited since it functions as a private sports facility with specific regulations for visitors.

The original manor house was destroyed by bombing during 1944 and has never been rebuilt. Only the two outer buildings survived the wartime destruction and now define what remains of the historic estate.
