    Kasteel Huys ter Horst has a rich history that dates back to the 13th century. Starting as a (flight) castle with a donjon (residential tower), it has developed over time into a mature H-shaped castle with an outer bailey, Hof ter Binnen, tithe barn and moats all around. From a military structure, the castle, the building later developed into an idyllic residential castle for the wealthy nobility. Due to a lack of money, the then owner sold the castle as building material, stone by stone, in the first half of the 19th century. The ruin that remained became the property of the municipality of Horst aan de Maas after the Second World War. At the end of the 20th century, volunteers, united in the Stichting Kasteel Huys ter Horst, started rebuilding parts of the castle according to historical paintings.
