Broekhuizen Castle, Castle ruin in Horst aan de Maas, Netherlands
The remains of Broekhuizen Castle stand along the Maas River, featuring remnants of its original cellar structure and foundation stones from medieval times.
The castle's construction began in the 13th century, with a significant tower addition in 1473 and a manor house extension completed in 1732.
The castle ruins represent a testament to Dutch architectural heritage, recognized through its status as a municipal monument in the Netherlands.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins via the Stokterweg street in Broekhuizen, with public transportation stops available in the nearby village center.
During World War II, German paratroopers occupied the castle, leading to its destruction in 1944 during the Battle of Broekhuizen.
