Goudenstein Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Haaften, Netherlands.

The remaining round corner tower of Goudenstein Castle stands 19 meters tall with a diameter of 3.5 meters, featuring traces of battlements in its walls.

The castle, constructed in the 14th century by the Van Haeften family, was destroyed in 1672 during the French invasion under King Louis XIV.

Goudenstein Castle holds national monument status as a Rijksmonument, representing the architectural and military heritage of the Dutch medieval period.

The tower remains are visible from Dreef street, Koningsstraat, and Goudensteinstraat, though the structure stands in private residential backyards.

Together with the Protestant church and windmill De Blauwe Reiger, the castle tower creates a distinct silhouette visible from the banks of the Waal river.
