Castellum Hoge Woerd is a castellum build on the real Roman castellum that was here more then 2000 years ago. The real castellum is still safe under the ground. Their showpiece is an original Roman boat. This is a perfect day out with children. There are lots of activities, a playground, space to run around, animals to cuddle and lots and lots to see and learn. We had a great day.

Beatiful reconstruction of a Roman castel and conserved Roman ship, excellent exhibition

Great exhibit, free entrance. Cafe has an awesome beer selection! Lunch or dinner is great here. Very reasonable prices. Bring your kids in the summer with outdoor seating while you keep an eye on them through the big glass windows. Service can be slow, not very attentive. Open kitchen with a big gas furnace for fresh pizzas. Dogs welcome too, and nice. Recommended!

Very nice. Decent food. Large outside space with much green where kids can play while you can sit and look at them!

We sat for approx.1 hour in the restaurant. No service and there have been just 2 other guests. Staff didn't manage to take an order or anything. I wonder for what they are paid. . Unfortunately it's not possible to give zero stars. Before covid good place, now worthless.

Great free museum, interactive information, although seems only in Dutch. Nice to walk on the roof. Free petting zoo.

An excellent museum and cafe. We also went during a festival for kids so lots of music and activities too.

Really nice museum, what an impressive way to present the roman ship on the glass surface, it lookslike is on the water surface again. Just 20 min by bicycle from the center of Utrecht.

Love it! Interesting place

An exceptionally well designed museum and exhibit. Artifacts are beautifully presented. All absolutely fascinating for the adult and child history/archeology fan.

I really love this place. Especially because of the cats and beautiful surroundings. Highly recommend! ❤️😻

Wonderful museum, great exposition and all of that completely free. Many thanks to people who made it possible!

Little hidden gem in Utrecht. Good for kids and adults alike, free entry and nice stuffs.

Relaxed green area, interestingly entertaining also for our kids. The little cafe putside was a little standard foodwise, and a bit understaffed during lunchtime.

A very nice place to visit. The museum is friendly and present well the presence of the Romans in northern Europe. The garden in the back is a great place to go with your young once to see some farming and farm animals.

Nice place to visit, gives good history of the place and various finds dug out from Roman Era. Also a good Cafe with home made cheesecakes and tasty coffee!!!!

Although it is realtive small, it is a very nice museum especially for people living in the neighborhood. It tells the long history of the neighborhood in a very interactive way. The entrance is free and you have a good lunch or dinner in their cafe/restaurant

Super nice activity center, it has a natural park great for kids of all ages. Petting zoo, restaurant/café in general a great place to spend the afternoon with the kids

Great place, combining a museum, a restaurant, a childrens' farm, and a theater. The museum is centered around a Roman transport ship, 25 m long, that was found nearby. Very impressive to see almost 2000 year old equipment come to life!

It's a small, but very nice place. The Castellum contains a little museum, a little farm, a theater, a cafe and some fields and gardens. The museum gives an interesting view of the area's history from prehistoric times until now, with a focus on Roman times. You can enter for free and the staff can offer extra information. The cafe offers a good selection of great food with good service. The staff is friendly and service is quick. We didn't check the theater. The farm consists of some small and some big farm animals. The bigger ones weren't there at our visit. As for the smaller ones, they have several animals including rabbits and guinea pigs that you can pet. All in all a good place for an afternoon. And it's a great place to bring little kids.

We stopped here for a bite to eat and to visit this museum that was specifically built for the Roman boat and artefacts that were found in Leidsche Rijn. I really enjoyed the museum and also the lunchroom. The food was very good and the staff were friendly
