A touch of Italy in the Biesbosch: in Dussen Castle you will feel like you are in Tuscany! In 1387, an existing residential tower was converted into a castle. However, the castle was destroyed during the St. Elizabeth's flood in 1421. It was rebuilt in 1456, but the castle also had an eventful history in the centuries that followed. Curious about what happened? Then book a tour of this fairytale building!
