Doorwerth Castle
Doorwerth Castle, also known as Castle Doorwerth and Kasteel Doorwerth, is a good example of a 'waterburcht' or moated castle. It has thick outer walls to help provide protection from the water and the location has been used for defensive purposes on a number of occasions. Arguably the most notable of these occasions includes when it was occupied by the Germans during World War Two, an event which led to the castle's destruction until it's restoration was finally completed during 1983. Now, the location is open as a museum to the public. Doorwerth Castle has few hauntings, but apparently one of them is a witch-like woman in a carriage pulled by headless horses. History Doorwerth Castle has also been called by the names of Castle Doorwerth and Kasteel Doorwerth. It is located on the river Rhine, within the Gelderland province of the Netherlands, and is near to the city of Arnhem. More specifically, Doorwerth Castle is based in the municipality of Renkum....
