Alden Biesen is one of Belgium's largest castle estates and a remarkable example of a former commandery of the Teutonic Order. Founded in the medieval period, it became an important religious and administrative centre. The complex includes a grand castle, courtyards, gardens and surrounding parkland. Visitors can explore exhibitions, attend events and walk through one of Limburg's most impressive historic landscapes. The estate connects naturally with cycling routes across Limburg's countryside, offering a slower-paced castle experience away from Belgium's major cities.
