Nederland - Kasteel Horn
Kasteel Horn is one of the oldest still intact medieval wall castles in the Netherlands. The castle is built on a natural boost nearby an old meander of the river Maas. It was built in the 13th century and the castle consists of a square gatehouse, a south wing and two semicircular towers connected by a ring wall.
Probably in the 15th century a lot of rebuilding took place at Kasteel Horn. The living quarters were extended, which caused the two southern towers to disappear. Also the gate tower was added to the living quarters and a new gate - the present gate - was build next to it.
In 1798, the castle was sold to Marcel-Gérard Magnée from Liège. The Magnée family still owns the Kasteel Horn. In 1954 the castle underwent a restoration after it was damaged by fire in 1948.
The castle - privately owned – is not accessible. The park however is always open for visitors.
