Nieuw-Herlaer Castle, Medieval castle in Sint-Michielsgestel, Netherlands.

The castle features a prominent 15th-century stair tower integrated into the northern facade of an 18th-century architectural addition.

Archaeological excavations revealed late 14th-century walls, indicating the castle's construction as a fortified structure under the van der Aa family.

The castle transformed from a military stronghold into a seminary in 1798, later serving as an institute for deaf-mute students and a convent.

Visitors can reach the castle via the A2 motorway and N617 road, situated between the major cities of 's-Hertogenbosch and Eindhoven.

The discovery of thousands of Roman coins near the castle in 1962 established the area's significance during the Roman period.
