Amsterdam Castle Muiderslot is not just the oldest castle in the
Netherlands. It is a magical place, surrounded by water and vegetation.
The castle gardens feature lots of heritage varieties: vegetables,
herbs, fruit, herbaceous plants and flowers (some of them edible). The
produce from the gardens was for centuries used to prepare the exquisite
meals at the castle. And the gardens still produce a rich harvest every
year. Muiderslot is also part of the Amsterdam Defence Line, a World
Heritage Site. The castle gardens are open daily, offering visitors the
chance to enjoy this lush part of our heritage.
