Kasteel Helmond
Helmond, Netherlands, Netherlands
Kasteel Helmond in Helmond, Netherlands, is the largest surviving square moated castle in the country, constructed around 1325-1350 by Lodewijk Berthout van Berlaer to replace an older structure called 't Oude Huys.
Built as a defensive stronghold with four corner towers and a deep moat amid swampy terrain, it passed through noble families like Van Berlaer, Van Cortenbach, Van Arberg, and Wesselman van Helmond, enduring sieges, loans, and disputes while hosting figures from dukes to mint masters.
Completed by the late 17th century, it transitioned from feudal power seat to town hall in 1923, now operating as a museum displaying its medieval architecture, noble histories, and regional artifacts.
