Walburg Castle, Medieval château in Ohé en Laak, Netherlands
The castle stands near the Meuse River, featuring architectural elements that reflect the influence of French court design and regional Dutch building traditions.
Herman Frederik van den Bergh constructed Walburg Castle in the mid-17th century as a residence for himself and Josina Walburgis, whom he brought from Thorn Abbey.
Count Reinier von Hompesch transformed the castle into a grand social center, maintaining rooms for hunting dogs and stables for twenty-four horses.
Visitors can explore the castle foundations through a mobile application that presents archaeological information and historical details about the structure.
During World War II, bombing operations caused substantial damage to the castle, leading to its current state as an archaeological site with visible ground contours.
