The Dussen Castle is a unique Dutch castle which dates back to the late 14th century. The castle was built by Lord Arent van der Dussen after Duke Albrecht gave him permission to build a fortified house. The castle has had several owners, including an eccentric lady from the Suringar family who had herself guarded by six male residents of the village of Dussen. She had her donkey sleep in a tower room, while the guards were forced to sleep in the arcade. Guided tours of the Dussen castle are available during the summer months.
