The late medieval Duerboslar castle is located about 2 km northwest of Aldenhoven in the town of Duerboslar, having the same name. The castle is a former moated castle. Already in 1478 it was mentioned in a document yet there are indications that the castle already existed in 898. In the 16th and 17th century the castle was rebuilt using bricks and also a three winged outer bailey was constructed. In 1620 the tower, located at the northwesterly corner, was erected and in 1841 the estate manor. In the year 1852 a complete new building was constructed.
