Kasteel Hardenbroek, Medieval castle in Driebergen-Rijsenburg, Netherlands.

The castle features a rectangular structure with a basement, elevated ground floor, upper floor, mezzanine, and attic under a complex neoclassical roof design.

Founded around 1260 by Gijsbert van Wulven, the castle received its name from its location on hard clay soil in a marshy environment.

The entrance displays natural stone with Tuscan pilasters and a pediment marking the year 1762, representing Dutch architectural elements of that period.

Visitors can access the castle through a double wooden bridge with wrought-iron balustrades leading to both the main entrance and basement service entrance.

The eastern facade preserves medieval masonry from the original knightly court, including a water gate positioned directly above the moat.
