The imposing 17th-century castle of Betho in Maasland style was originally a moated castle. It forms a closed structure girded with 4 corner towers and is built around two inner courtyards. The residential buildings are located around one courtyard and the castle farm around the other. The current pond is a remnant of the castle moat that once surrounded the building. The castle is not open to the public
