Gilbert - Castle Bentheim (part 1)

On Sunday, June 13, we visited castle Bentheim in the city Bad-Bentheim.

Close to the castle I spotted a memorial statue.

And this statue of a guy tugging on his suspenders.

The entrance to the castle!

It was a nice sunny day.

This gate led into the courtyard.

We were early, so we had to wait in the courtyard until the ticket sale would start.


I found a lookout post thing.

Finally we could get tickets and enter the castle.

Inside the castle walls was another big garden.


We climbed up on the walls to have a good view.

There was a large park close to the castle.

I think this used to be a guard tower.

Another view on castle Bentheim from the castle walls.

More castle spam.

We went to the top of a tower and there were these smaller tower thingies. Not sure what they are for or what A tVtore means.


Next: even more castle spam.
