Ruurlo Castle is already mentioned in 1326 and has been in the hands of the Dutch noble family Van Heeckeren since the 15th century. the surrounding farms have painted the window shutters in the colors that traditionally belonged to this castle. At all other castles and manors in the region you will find different styles of painting on the shutters. This way you can easily tell the different houses or families apart.
