Bethlehem Castle, Medieval castle in Limmel, Netherlands
The stone bridge leads to Bethlehem Castle, featuring white-painted walls and traditional brick architecture within its preserved medieval structure.
Originally constructed in the 13th century, Bethlehem Castle belonged to the Teutonic Knights for three centuries and underwent major renovations between 1507 and 1509.
The castle shares a thematic connection with nearby Kasteel Jerusalem and Nazareth farm, reflecting the regional naming patterns of historical properties.
Bethlehem Castle now functions as the Teaching Hotel Château Bethlehem, offering accommodations while serving as part of the Hotel Management School Maastricht.
The castle bridge, registered as a protected monument in 1975, remains an integral component of this Rijksmonument heritage site.
