"The Kasteel van Wijchen is a castle in the center of Wijchen , in the Dutch province of Gelderland . The castle is partly used as a town hall and as a museum.
At the end of the 14th century the first version of the castle was built: the first mention dates back to 1392. Until the 17th century it was mainly a defensive work with a different appearance than the current castle. The castle was first owned by the Lords of Galen . Jacob van Galen sold the castle in 1535 to one of the Heren van Bronckhorst."
