Goudenstein Castle is a ruined castle in Haaften, a village in the municipality of West Betuwe in the Dutch province of Gelderland.From the 13th century there is mention of the castle, its builders and inhabitants, the Van Haeften family. In the disastrous year of 1672, the castle was destroyed by the French troops of King Louis XIV, sparing only a corner tower. The tower is approximately 19 meters high and 3.5 meters in diameter. Halfway through, traces of battlements are visible in the wallwork. The wall walk was originally at this height, the wall below has a thickness of 1.10 meters, while above it the wall is only 25 centimeters. The wall was probably raised in the 16th century. The Dutry van Haeften family, relatives but not direct descendants of the builders, kept possession of the remaining tower until 1975. The Friends of Geldersche Kasteelen Foundation acquired the tower and took it under its wing.
