Description

Kasteel Staverden is situated on the Staverdenseweg in Staverden (municipality of Ermelo), in the Dutch province of Gelderland. The house and the park by the house are the property of Geldersch Landschap en Kasteelen and are accessible to the public.

On an island in the park lies a plinth with the text Lenora 1353.

The present castle, by now the fourth, was built partly in 1853 and partly in the year 1905, contains seventeenth-century elements and is built on the foundations of the previous castle, from the eighteenth century. The rooms on the ground floor are decorated with Jugendstil motifs. Of the medieval castle no remains are visible above ground level.
