Burg Rode is a hilltop castle in the town centre of Herzogenrath in the Aachen city region. It lies only a few hundred metres from the border with the neighbouring Dutch town of Kerkrade. The association "Burg Rode Herzogenrath e. V." holds regular events in the castle such as concerts, dialect evenings, exhibitions and cabaret. The traditional castle festival takes place in June. Castle tours are also offered, and the Herzogenrath registry office regularly conducts weddings there.
