Nemerlaer Castle is situated on the edge of the Beerze stream valley, between Oisterwijk and Haaren. The castle is one of the oldest in North Brabant and was mentioned in historical sources as early as the 14th century. The name Nemerlaer supposedly refers to "no one's forest" or "no one's land," indicating that the area was once a free and undeveloped landscape. The original castle originated as a fortified house that served to protect the surrounding land and trade routes. Over the centuries, the building was expanded and modified several times. The current appearance of the castle, with its towers, moat, and surrounding park, is the result of various renovations, primarily in the 16th and 17th centuries. During the Eighty Years' War and subsequent conflicts, the castle was damaged but was repeatedly repaired. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the estate increasingly took on the character of a country estate with a park and avenues. Today, Nemerlaer Castle is a cultural and historical center that regularly hosts exhibitions, lectures, and cultural events. The estate surrounding the castle offers a peaceful walking area with mature trees, avenues, and views of the Beerze valley, bringing history and nature into close proximity.

Stapelen Castle is over 700 years old and still contains many original features. The exact date of its construction is unknown, but the oldest mention dates from 1293. The castle was the home of the Lord of Boxtel and his family. Remarkably, Prince William of Orange and the French Sun King Louis XIV also spent several nights there. In 1915, the castle was sold to the Assumptionist Fathers. They were primarily active in education, healthcare, and missionary work. Since 2018, the castle has been privately owned again. The southern part of the castle, in particular, retains many original features. For example, the Knights' Hall still has its original fourteenth-century roof and a barrel vault. The octagonal tower on the east side was built in the Middle Ages. The castle's name likely comes from the word "Stapel," which meant "high place." www.beleefboxtel.nl
