Castle De Haar

Nice place to visit. It's easy to reach from the city centre (buses 28 and 111), and the self-tour inside the castle is well sinalised and oriented by friendly employees. The castle was built in the 1300s, but was actively inherited and used all these centuries, so there are a lot of history and details inside. Very well kept. The gardens/park are very beautiful and I believe that in summer it's even nicer, as picnic is allowed. Good to go with all the family.

Easy to access by bus, the bus stop is outside the train station. The the bus stops outside the castle (both ways). Seen only the garden which is beautiful, I assume in Spring and Summer will be nicer. There are picnic tables as well.

Beautiful grounds and castle. Well worth a visit! You can use your museum card to enter. The inside of the castle is beautiful and well maintained. Very informative with lots of hosts in the rooms to tell you more about about it.

This was absolutely magical, I loved every minute of visiting. It would be a 10/10 no matter what - the castle and the interiors are simply breathtaking - but I just wanted to drop by and say CONGRATULATIONS to all the staff, everyone was incredibly warm, welcoming, and excited to share little curiosities and insights about the castle's history. A truly special experience, can't recommend it enough!

We commuted here from Rotterdam, a bit of a journey but public transportation will get you there if nothing gets cancelled. The bus stop is right next to the entrance of the grounds. Easy when you get there, scan your museumkaart twice and you’re in. We bought the 2.5 euro audioguide which was really nice and in our opinion, worth it. Nice to hear about the history of the castle as well as the owners. The outside gardens are nice and probably amazing in summer but we went in January so the water was almost iced over. Nice to see if you’re in this area of the Netherlands!

An absolute must see when visiting the central part of the Netherlands. It’s close to Amsterdam and Utrecht. Very large castle, so well maintained and preserved. Also very relaxing walks with lots of benches possible trough the parks and gardens around the castle. The inside of the castle is amazing, don’t forget to visit the gift shop there, and the restaurant is also very yummy (near the entry).

Beautiful castle, well maintained and full of details. Every room has information in different languages available on a flyer. A lot of employees walking in all rooms to give some extra information and tell some interesting facts.

A small group of us stopped by on the way back from Amsterdam. The place is beautiful, and the employees throughout the castle were very knowledgeable. We ate at the little restaurant which just recently opened. The food was pretty good, and our server was very polite.

A beautiful castle with big lush beautiful gardens and ponds. The moment you enter insider it makes you go to the same era. Beautiful bed rooms, hall ways, galleries, the living area and powder rooms still feel alive. The main hall, roof and walls and magnificent. If you have museum card this is covered. You can enter easily. It is in calm and conent place. The cafe is large but full. The gardens and good to go for a picnic. Highly recommended for visit. The walk space and gardens are large to wear comfortable shoes. Enjoyed the overall experience.

It was one of the most beautiful castles I have seen. It is very well kept and the guides are friendly, helpful and very informative. The fact that the family comes back yearly to keep up the traditions is great.

History is preserved very well. The gardens are well taken care of and it is so peaceful. We had a picnic in the garden.

The shop is also well worth a visit as is the restaurant.

Well worth a visit.

A brilliant archutectural monument to ancestors, style, design and talent! We have visited the castle just around Christmas in a very rainy weather, even then the gardens look good, I can imagine how beautiful they are in spring/ summer and autumn. I will definitely return!

Castle de Haar is a fantastic castle, it’s a modern one with stunning architecture, it’s surrounded by several large parks, lakes, a maze, and several other attractions. It’s worth the visit for a great walk

A unique visit that must be done by all history and castle lovers! Picturesque landscape that travels visitors to the 1700s! Very well maintained. Both surrounding areas and inside rooms are magnificent.

Parking cost is costly for no reason as it offers neither security nor shadow.

Most beautiful castle and gardens. Not possible to get there if you have to rely on public transport, so keep in mind that extra cost will be required to rent a car or hire a taxi.
Booking in advance is a good idea - you book a time slot and then don't have to wait to go inside. We booked about 2 weeks in advance.
You can easily spend a whole day there - both the residence and the gardens are absolutely magnificent!

Very good experience. Nice monument and good location and also solution with the bus transfer, without car for ecample. From the city center it was 1 hour by bus with one change. Map about this place you can find near kassa when you come in. My expectations was very possitive. 🤩🏰
For the kids was there also some castle game, it was really funny see them with smiling and exciting.
Castle gardens and parks looks very big and nicely adapted.

Fantastic place. The castle is huge and very beautiful inside. Moreover it has amazing park with deers. People who work there are very friendly and polite. Highly recommended especially if you have a museum card.

Very beautiful and majestic. You will take a walk, enjoy yourself, and take beautiful photos. The inside of the castle is also interesting. You can go by car, there is parking. There is a bus stop nearby and the train station itself, convenient

The whole place is beautiful and relaxing. The castle is unique and fully renovated.
Not just a boring, old-furniture-smelly old chateau. The rooms are full with life: the old phone is ringing sometimes, there are newspaper left on the table like its owner would have just left the room etc.
The garden is beautiful, there are pretty little bridges everywhere, you can find deers as well etc.
We spent 4 hours there. Enjoyed every minutes.

Beautiful, well-preserved castle close to Utrecht, with marvelous architecture and exquisite interior. We bought the tickets online for 19 euros per person, but you can go in for free with the museum card.

Beautiful and big castle. It's a romantic place which features a very large garden, which is accompanied by a luxurious castle. It's an awesome place which is excellent for photography. You can also picnic in the garden. The garden also has some animals like deers and swans in it, so it's enjoyable for children too.
