Reviews
Radboud Castle Is really a must for young and old. And what a friendly and enthusiastic volunteers. You feel welcome and our son (3 years) had a great time. There is a very nice playroom and there are binoculars in the tower room. Outside on the battlements you have a beautiful view. We will definitely visit again in the future. Our son is still full of knights and pirates.

Grave Carpet Theme Day
May 12, 2024
The Graven Tapestry of Radboud Castle is a unique multi-year project, where a tapestry is made in the medieval manner by volunteers. They have been specially trained in this traditional method of embroidery for this project. On this day you will find the embroiderers themselves in the Knights' Hall with one or more of the tapestries. They will tell you more about the project, such as which specific medieval techniques were used. They will also demonstrate how they set the embroidery stitches.
