Kasteel van BredaA majestic old castle located in the heart of Netherlands. The Lords of Breda, descendants of the royal house of Oranje-Nassau, lived in this castle, held court, partied and exercised their power. In the sixteenth century, Count Henry III of Nassau had the castle rigorously converted into a Renaissance palace. With the arrival of the Royal Military Academy in 1826, the castle was again considerably austere and stripped of many of its Renaissance ornaments.
