Christmas at Hoensbroek Castle

For its fifth edition, Hoensbroek Castle throws open its gates for a weekend-long Christmas celebration for locals and visitors. On both days the gates open at noon; the full programme is still to be announced. The moated castle with its courtyards is normally a busy museum, but there are no regular museum visits during this weekend. Entry is free; the organisers ask you to register online with the number of guests. Tip: there is a large car park in front of the castle (normally free, a fee may apply on event days); check the final programme before you set off.
