Tolhuis, Medieval castle ruins in Lobith, Netherlands
The Tolhuis castle was built with brick walls and featured a prominent round tower near the convergence of the Rhine and Waal rivers.
Duke Reinald I of Gelderland established the castle in 1307 to collect tolls from ships navigating the Rhine River through the Dutch territory.
The Schipperspoortje gatehouse, the last remaining structure of Tolhuis, contains specific niches where watchmen placed candles during night guard duties.
The original castle location shifted approximately one kilometer south due to changes in the Rhine River course over several centuries.
The French army of Louis XIV crossed the Rhine at this location in 1672, leading to the complete destruction of the castle during the Dutch War.
