The model of Stevensweert Castle is located on Jan van Steffeswertplein.
The medieval castle came into the hands of the lords Van den Bergh in 1503. The castle was largely destroyed by cannons and mortars during the Battle of Stevensweert in 1702.
Only the round tower and the castle chapel were spared. Then the Protestant armies conquered the Island in the Meuse from the Spanish occupiers.
The text accompanying the model is in the Dutch language and Braille.
