There was no room available today

There was a customs tower here around a thousand years ago. Over the centuries it developed into a castle, initially as a residence for the Counts of Kessel. The events of the war caused considerable damage to the facility in 1944. The ruins were only rebuilt in 2011, but not according to the historical model. With classic shapes combined with modern elements, it was expanded into one of the most modern castle complexes in the Netherlands with upscale gastronomy and a small museum on the upper floor.

Classically beautiful and touristy castle town. Known nationally and correspondingly well attended.

It's certainly a matter of taste, but in my opinion the bold combination of old ruins and modern architecture is very successful here. The café inside the building looks very inviting. We were there too early in the day to test out the culinary offerings.

In my opinion, the castle has been rebuilt and restored in an interesting way, even if it doesn't suit my taste.

Imposing building, now privately owned

A beautiful old town on the Maas with a modern renovated castle.

The historical nucleus was the motte, now overgrown with trees, located in the middle of the mill pond. This motte, Tüschenbroich (an archaeological site on an island in the middle of the castle pond, probably separated from the mainland by a moat), was built as a moated castle and first mentioned in documents in 1172 as Thuschinbroc. The buildings burned down during the Thirty Years' War. Tüschenbroich belonged to Wassenberg and later to the Duchy of Jülich. In 1624, Franz von Spiering bought the war-damaged Tüschenbroich for 24,200 Reichstalers. He had the complex rebuilt as a baroque palace complex made of brick. The "Codex Welser," an illustrated inventory of all knightly fiefdoms in the Duchy of Jülich, shows both the main castle island and the outer bailey, parts of which are still preserved today, which later (after being destroyed) became the main castle. Tüschenbroich Castle seen from the motte. The castle was repaired in 1876 after being severely damaged in a storm. Tüschenbroich Castle is now privately owned.
