    Slot Moermond with its wide driveway and beautiful moat dates back to the 13th century.
    The Slot is embraced by the Landgoed Moermond, a 45-hectare protected nature reserve.

    A piece of history:
    The estate was founded around 1229 by Constatijn van Zierikzee. The most famous residents are Jan van Renesse and Witte van Haamstede.
    Twice it was destroyed by battles and rebuilt again.

    The last inhabitants of the Slot, the Vriesendorp family, lived at Slot Moermond during the Second World War. These ensured that the Slot was rebuilt again, only when the Slot was hit by the flood disaster in 1953, they could not afford to rebuild the estate and the lock completely in such a short time.

    In 1955, the Slot and Estate was returned to its original state after a thorough restoration.
