Groot Horloo, Modern residential castle in Ermelo, Netherlands

Groot Horloo features a 40-meter tower and incorporates multiple buildings arranged around two courtyards, following the Delft School architectural style.

The castle, constructed in 2010 near the A28 highway, stands on what was formerly the Zuiderzee beach of the Veluwe region.

The residential complex includes 103 housing units and a communal space, creating a contemporary interpretation of traditional Dutch castle architecture.

The castle walls serve a dual purpose as noise barriers, protecting residents from highway sounds while maintaining the architectural character.

The surrounding park contains several badger setts, integrating natural habitats with modern residential development.
