Aldenborgh, Medieval château in Weert, Netherlands
The stone structure stands near the river Biest, featuring a defensive moat and multiple rooms that served as a noble residence point.
Built around 1290 under Count Willem II of Horn, the château later transformed into a monastery when Count Jacob I transferred it to friars minor.
The site includes the Paterskerk church, constructed between 1500 and 1512 to replace the original chapel of the former noble residence.
The former château grounds now function as the Hieronymus Bos care facility, maintaining the historical structure for modern purposes.
Archaeological evidence confirms the presence of a chapel and multiple chambers from 1432, indicating its status as a representative dwelling for Horn lords.
