Duurstede Castle
One of the oldest medieval castles in the Netherlands. A fairy tale location surrounded by a gorgeous park with a moat, accessible exclusively by a drawbridge.
A fairy tale location surrounded by a gorgeous park with a moat, accessible exclusively by a drawbridge.
Many of the trees in the park surrounding the castle are more than 150 years old. The castle park (locals refer to it as 'the woods') was created by Zocher in English landscape style.
This unique location, far removed from any traffic noise, with its castle towers and the spacious courtyard, makes Duurstede Castle exceptionally suitable for hosting many events, receptions and parties.
The site offers three wedding locations: the keep, the music tent and the Burgundian tower.

Plofsluis
PlofsluisPlofsluis
The Plofsluis consists of five concrete bins with a relatively weak floor that span the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal. The bins could store around 40,000 tonnes of sand, gravel or debris. In wartime, the floor could be blow up, so that its contents would drop into the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal. This would block the canal and prevent the inundation water from flowing out. The lock was designed in such a way that its sides would remain upright after the explosion, so that the floor could be reconstructed and the sluice could be used again. It was never actually used.
