크림페너바르드‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 동굴

성에서는 더 이상 아무것도 남아 있지 않습니다. 성이 있던 작은 섬과 도개교만 존재합니다. 한 장소에는 성이 묘사된 조각된 원반이 있어, 한때 어떻게 생겼었는지 작은 상상을 할 수 있습니다.

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.

Huys ten Donck is a monumental country house dating from 1746, located in Ridderkerk, South Holland. It is surrounded by a beautiful 18th-century park in the English landscape style. The house is still privately occupied by descendants of the original family and is occasionally open for tours, events, and weddings. The estate is also popular for walking in the green surroundings.

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.

Montfoort Castle is a medieval fortress dating back to the 12th century, with a turbulent history of sieges and destruction, still visible today in the gatehouse and outer bailey. After centuries of education and correctional facilities, the castle has evolved into an atmospheric, multifunctional venue for gastronomy and events.

Only a small part of the original castle remains but it is still worth including in your walk.

Montfoort Castle in Montfoort, Utrecht, was built in 1163 by Bishop Godefried van Rhenen to defend the Sticht against the county of Holland. Only part of the outer bailey still stands. Wikipedia
