Tips
From the 12th to the 14th century, the counts of Gelre built various fortifications along the borders with the Sticht Utrecht. Kernhem Castle was one of them.
In 1426, Udo de Booze was appointed as vassal of Kernhem by the then Duke of Guelders Arnold van Egmont. After the fiefs became hereditary, Kernhem came into the hands of the Van Arnhem, Van Wassenaer Obdam and later Van Heeckeren van Wassenaer and Bentinck families.translated by
