Forgotten History
Kasteel Brakel
Leerdam, Netherlands
Brakel Castle is a medieval castle ruin in the village of Brakel (municipality of Zaltbommel in Gelderland). It is located approximately 300 meters southwest of the reformed church, in the early 19th century park of the current Huis Brakel, which dates from 1768. When the park was constructed, the ruin was deliberately included as a landscape element. The remains visible then and now date from the 15th century castle, but underneath are remains of a possible 14th century castle.
