The Most Famous Castle
in the Netherlands

Slot Loevestein Waar Maas en Waal tezamen vloeit, En Gorkum rijst van ver, Daar heft zich op den linker zoom, En weerspiegelt in den breeden stroom, Een slot van eeuwen her. 't Is Loevestein.

In 1358, a knight called Diederic Loef of Horne built a castle in the middle of the Dutch countryside where the Meuse and Waal rivers converged.
