Forgotten History
Aastein
Stichtse Vecht, Netherlands
Aastein, also called Ajestein, is a former castle near Breukelen in Utrecht. The Ter Aa family owned extensive property along the Aa. Around 1380, both Ter Aa and Over de Aa, located on the western bank, are mentioned as fiefs of the bishop of Utrecht. Ter Aa probably no longer met the residential requirements around the middle of the 14th century and a new castle, Aastein, was built 700 meters southeast.
