Where land defenders are trained. History: Breda Castle was once the ancestral seat of the Nassaus, the ancestors of our Royal family. Due to the important international role of the Nassaus, the Castle was an important place in Europe in the 15th to 17th centuries. Long history Breda Castle has a long history. As early as 1198, there was a castle on the site of the current castle. The castle came into the hands of the Nassau in the early 15th century through the marriage of the German Count Engelbrecht of Nassau with Johanna van Polanen from Breda. Over the centuries, the castle has been demolished and built almost continuously. From Renaissance Palace to KMA In the sixteenth century, Count Henry III of Nassau had the castle rigorously converted into a Renaissance palace. For this purpose he brought Thomas Vincidor de Bologna, a student of Raphael, to Breda. With the arrival of the Royal Military Academy in 1826, the castle was again sobered and many of the Renaissance ornaments disappeared. Guided tours Because the Castle is located on military grounds, it can only be visited to a very limited extent. Gilde de Baronie regularly gives guided tours of the grounds. Interested in a tour?

Since 1973, the Brabantse Delta water board has been the proud owner of this historic country estate on the south side of Breda. The estate dates from the fifteenth century and consists of a fairytale castle surrounded by three special gardens and an orchard. In mid-2010, the water board moved into the new office building on the estate. The beautiful gardens at the castle are worth a visit. Inspired by the fashion of that time, the estate features gardens from France, England and Germany. In 2010, the orchard, which was originally located on the south side of the estate, was also restored to its former glory. Source: https://www.landgoedbouvigne.nl/home/2

The first Breda Castle was built on this site in the twelfth century. The castle, which has been extensively renovated since then, played an important role in Dutch history. Until the Eighty Years' War (1568-1648), the castle was home to the royal family of Orange-Nassau, with William of Orange as its most famous resident. In 1828, the Royal Military Academy opened its doors here, which has been part of the Dutch Defence Academy since 2005. Source: information board at the entrance to the Royal Military Academy

The Spanjaardsgat consists of two defense towers, built by Count Hendrik III. The left tower is called 'Granaattoren'. Because carrier pigeons were kept in the right tower for William of Orange, it was given the name 'Duiventoren'. The towers now serve as chapels and the Duiventoren also houses the information center of the Dutch Defense Academy, of which the KMA is a part. Many people think that this is where the ruse with the peat ship took place in 1590, but that happened a little further, at the current sports field of the KMA. Peat skipper Adriaan van Bergen then recaptured the Castle from the Spaniards by smuggling soldiers of Prince Maurits into the castle walls in his ship.
