📽️ Moyland Castle

Moyland Castle is a water castle in Bedburg-Hau in the district of Kleve, one of the most important neo-Gothic buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia. Its name derives from the Dutch word Mooiland which means "beautiful country". The name was probably coined by Dutch workers, brought to the property in 1307 to drain the surrounding wetlands by the then-leaseholder, Jacob van den Eger of the Lower Rhine.
