Kasteel Hillenraad has the appearance of a seventeenth or eighteenth-century building, but its core is older. The castle is first mentioned in archival documents in 1380 and was then owned by the nobleman Dirk van Oost. He came from Oost Castle near Maastricht and was somehow related to the lords of Swalmen. He is mentioned in Swalmen from 1379 and shortly thereafter also bought the ancestral seat of the lords of Swalmen, which is now known as the Ouborg. Since then, Hillenraad has always remained in the family. However, the family sometimes took on a different name through inheritance in the female line. The original building had a round tower at the back. In the seventeenth century, this had to make way for the addition of a large hall. Later, two wings were added to the sides and finally, in the eighteenth century, four towers were added at the corners. After the French period, the castle was no longer inhabited by the family and fell into considerable disrepair. When Count Herman Wolff Metternich (1887-1956) inherited Hillenraad in 1909, he began a major restoration. He saved the castle from ruin.

The stately avenues in the forest are also connected to the castle, and there is also something to discover there. More about the Hillenrader Bossen at https://www.komoot.com/nl-nl/highlight/7695125
