Slotje Limburg, Medieval château in Oosterhout, Netherlands.

The stone building features two corner towers, a moat, and multiple wings surrounding what was once an open courtyard.

Peter de Hertoghe, steward of the Duchy of Limburg, transformed a farmhouse into this château in 1454, establishing its current name.

The structure belongs to a group of seven châteaux called slotjes, with five remaining in Oosterhout, representing local noble residences.

Located at Slotlaan 15, the building now serves as headquarters for De Haan Minerale Oliën and remains closed to public visits.

From 1875 to 1879, Polish nuns from Upper Silesia found refuge here after being expelled from their convent during the Kulturkampf period.
