About
Muiderslot is a moated castle dating back to 1285, now a national museum. Kids walk through the Knights' Hall, see armor and a 14th-century chest carved from a hollowed-out tree trunk, and follow routes through the castle and gardens.
The free audio tour, in English or Dutch, suits children, and the studio runs creative activities every day. Outside are a herb garden, a plum orchard and a shaded green tunnel.
