Depicted is the 'Westhove' castle. This castle is situated on the northern part of the peninsula Walceren, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

It was built in the beginning of the 13th century. Because of WW II bombing, the castle was heavily damaged. In 1948 the outside of the castle was repaired, followed in 1977 by a thorough restoration of its interiors. Because of all these changes not much remains of the real medieval castle.
