Ammersoyen Castle, Medieval moated castle in Ammerzoden, Netherlands.
The rectangular castle features four heavy round towers at each corner, with connecting wings surrounding a central courtyard and defensive moat system.
Dirk Van Herlaer commissioned the castle construction in 1350, which later became a strategic fortress during conflicts between Gelderland and Brabant.
The castle maintains its medieval structure while housing archaeological exhibits from moat discoveries, offering insights into Netherlands defensive architecture.
Visitors can explore the castle daily from April to October between 11:00 and 17:00, with guided tours available through knights' halls and women's quarters.
During the 1873 transition to a convent, the Poor Clares order modified the grounds before the castle later served as a washing machine factory.
