The castle was built in a relatively short time and has dominated Woerden's city center ever since. The first mention dates from 1415 and can be found on a drawing for the castle's construction. Based on this document, it is assumed that construction began in 1410. Steward Heynric Hermans is considered the first resident. He was an innkeeper and represented the Duke of Brabant, Jan van Beieren, who built the castle in Woerden. Even then, the castle served as a safe haven for the Duke's guests. The towers are connected by stone-vaulted corridors. At the end of the 15th century, it was used as the official residence of the Bailiff of the Land of Woerden. It retained this function until the end of the 18th century. In the 19th century, it served as a prison for men for a time, and later for women. Afterward, it served as a central warehouse for military supplies, a function the castle retained until the early 1980s. Now, more than 600 years later, Woerden Castle is known as the premier event venue in the Groene Hart region and serves as a safe haven for all its guests.

In the municipality of Ridderkerk, in the Riederwaard near Slikkeveer, lies the castle ruin of the noble Van Woude family, which held a fiefdom belonging to the count. Construction of the castle began in 1372 but was never completed because the Riederwaard flooded in 1373. The existing walls withstood the flood, but were torn down during the Hook and Cod Wars. During the St. Elizabeth's Flood in 1421, the remains were covered with a layer of clay. The castle measured approximately fifteen by twenty meters. A wall divided the building lengthwise into two naves. There was at least one floor, which likely housed a representative hall. The ground floor resembled a cellar lit by slit windows. Because the rising walls were only 50 to 65 centimeters thick, Huis te Woude likely served residential purposes rather than defense.

The Donckse Bos is a park that belongs to the house Huys ten Donck in the Dutch municipality of Ridderkerk. The park is located between the Bolnes and Slikkerveer districts in the municipality of Ridderkerk. The park was transformed in the 18th century by the mayor and lord of Ridderkerk Cornelis Groeninx van Zoelen (1740-1791) from a garden in French style to a park in the English landscape park style. In the early 20th century, the landscaper Leonard Springer renovated the park. In the park you can still find trees that date from the period when the park was created. Special are some centuries-old beech, oak, Japanese walnut and plane trees. The area consists of the estate and the nearby outer dike griend. The Huys ten Donck itself has the status of a national monument.
