Slot Zuylen
Slot Zuylen is one of the oldest castles on the Vecht, just outside the city of Utrecht. The castle has a rich family history with influential residents, in which strong women play a prominent role, such as writer Belle van Zuylen.
Utrecht nobility
In Slot Zuylen, the public is introduced to the living culture and daily life of the Utrecht nobility. The museum consists of the intact castle and the historical garden. In the castle, the original inventory consisting of books, paintings, furniture, costumes, photos and household items can be admired. In addition, art treasures such as paintings by Gerard van Honthorst, a room-filling tapestry, rare glassware and Chinese porcelain adorn the house. Slot Zuylen is open all year round for guided tours, events, concerts, children's parties, weddings, location rental, and for lunch and high tea in the museum café.
Museum café
In the museum café in the restored Koetshuis you can enjoy fair trade coffee and tea, organic juices, lunch with products from our own garden, coffee and cake and high tea. The Koetshuis is also a base for walking and cycling tours. For groups the beautiful Bovenzaal or the Museumcafé is available (also outside opening hours).
