Empel en Meerwijk Castle

Empel en Meerwijk Castle was a medieval castle just north of 's-Hertogenbosch. All that's left is a terrain where the castle outlines have been visualized.

The castle was the original seat of the Lords of Empel and Meerwijk, henceforward Empel en Meerwijk. The current name of the castle is Empel en Meerwijk Castle, or Kasteel van Empel en Meerwijk, designating it as such. I.e. the name Empel en Meerwijk Castle is a construct, which was never used before the twentieth century. Before that, the castle was referred to as Kasteel Meerwijk or Slot Meerwijk, but that name was later taken by Meerwijk Castle, originally called Nieuw Meerwijk. In sources predating the nineteenth century the castle is often referred to as the House of Empel.
