This majestic castle has had a checkered history and forms an important insight into Dutch conflicts. Set in splendid gardens, this stern looking Castle is wonderful to visit. There are many fascinating rooms to be visited and it is all full of interest, including the families who have resided here. To protect the valuable contents, it is regrettably fairly dark with shutters drawn and curtains closed. This should not detract from the pleasure you should derive from a visit here.

Today we visited Slot Zuylen in a small village called Oud-Zuylen. The castle was the home of the female writer Belle van Zuylen. We had as nice guided tour and our guide Karen Wesdorp had great knowledge of the castle and it's inhabitants throughout the ages. The tour was spoken in Dutch, but for visitors who had English or German as their native language there were booklets with the information in their own language.

Slot Zeist, a beautiful historic little kind of castle in Zeist ( province of Utrecht). It’s a place with often all kind of things to do or just have a walk to see the Slot, it’s surrounded by a little canal and there is place to park your car for free. Downtown city centre is just minutes by walk. Slot Zeist is a great place to enjoy or relax from the vibrant city centre.

I love coming here. Wether it is for the monthly market, a stroll through the park or a fair or an exhibit in the castle. Groeneveld is a beautiful castle located in the forest but also close to two cities (Baarn and Soest) and several restaurants.

Fort bij Vechten is a special and historic location for events and outings in the middle of the Netherlands. Located on the A12 near Utrecht and the location with extensive possibilities for formal and informal meetings. Fort bij Vechten was built between 1867 and 1870. The large bombproof barracks was added in 1880. The fort covers 17 hectares and is the largest fort of the New Dutch Water Line after Rhijnauwen. Mobilization of the fort took place in 1870, 1914-1918 and 1939-1940, but this fort was never involved in war acts.

This fortress tells you the story of how the Dutch dealt with their enemies. It's a part of a defense line called: De Waterlinie. Taking a tour with a guide is highly reccomendable in order to get the whole picture and hear the stories. For those with an apetite there's a small café where you can have a light lunch or snack.
