Kasteel Oost is a castle-like country house in a bend of the Geul river, east of Valkenburg aan de Geul. The castle, which is surrounded by a formal garden and a landscape garden, is now a national monument. Kasteel Oost belonged to the Drossaard of the Land van Valkenburg in 1587. The west wing and the connecting part have been preserved. Nowadays the castle is used as a wedding hall, conference hall and party and congress centre.

With its ocher facades, the neoclassical castle near the Geul stands out in the green of the park. The baroque gardens are freely accessible. The history of Oost Castle dates back to the 16th century, but its current appearance dates from 1836.
