    Etzenraderhuuske, also called Huisken or, incorrectly, Etzenrade Castle, is an old farm from 1710 in the hamlet of Etzenrade of the same name in the Dutch province of Limburg.
    The Etzenraderhuuske should be distinguished from the Etzenraderhof, another building in the hamlet.
    In the 13th century, Etzenrade Castle was already mentioned as a fief of Valkenburg. In 1299 a chapel was founded by Dirk van Einighausen, which indicates that the castle already had some significance.


    Little is known about the construction history of the castle. The last part of the castle ruins were cleared away around 1880, without further investigation.

    In 1840, the castle ruins were located north of the U-shaped farm within a rectangular moat. On the north side of the moated main castle was a much larger, moated island, which would have been used as a garden. The building farm was no longer moated at the beginning of the 19th century. On the north and west sides there was a double moat with a canal or rampart in between.
