Just a few steps from Castricum train station lies a special place, hidden in the green: Captain Rommel's Garden .
This oasis of tranquility is a place where people meet, children explore, and the seasons change. Whether you come for a walk, gardening, an activity, or simply a cup of herbal tea, you are welcome.
The garden is for everyone—young and old. There are regular educational and creative activities, but it's also a wonderful place to relax on a regular weekday.
You walk past flowering plants, hear the trickling of the waterfall (designed by Captain Rommel himself) and find places to sit and relax for a while.
🕒 When is the garden open?
From April to October the garden is open weekdays from 9:30 to 16:30
From November to March the garden is also open on weekdays from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. , but closes at 1:00 p.m. on Wednesdays.
