Stately building. Very well maintained but not open to the public.

Well Castle is a fully restored castle from the Middle Ages near the Limburg town of Well in the Netherlands.

The castle was originally built in the 14th century as a moated castle. It is not located directly on the river but a little further in a swampy area and was heavily damaged in the Second World War and was subsequently restored. From 1771 to 1852, the castle was owned by the noble De Liedel family, who inherited it from the Countess de Pas de Feuquières, born in Steprath.
In 1944 it was damaged by war, after which it was restored.

The castle consists of the main castle and an outer bailey. Both the main building and the outer bailey are national monuments, as are the adjacent bridges, tithe barn, ruins and the historic garden. Until 1969, the castle was owned by Landgoederen De Witrijt + Bosserheide of the Claessen-Laumans family. After this, ownership was transferred to the Limburg Castles Foundation. Since 1986, the castle has been taken over and used by the private educational institution Emerson College.
