[1] During the Wars of the Loon Succession lord Peter of Culemborg fought on the Guelders side.

After a long struggle for the succession, graaf Oswald van den Bergh became lord of Boxmeer in 1545.

After his death in 1546, his sons Willem IV van den Bergh and Frederik fought about the succession.

[1] In 1572 Willem van den Bergh commanded one of the little armies that invaded the Netherlands, and had some initial success.

In 1575 Frederik van den Bergh occupied the deserted castle, and had himself acknowledged as Lord of Boxmeer.

[1] In 1712 Frans Wilhelm van den Bergh-Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, second son of Meinrad II, Prince of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen became the new lord of Boxmeer.

His son Johan Baptist van Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen (1728-1781) was jailed for murder in 1757, and so his older sister Joanna Josephina Antonia got authority over his lands.

In 1897 the castle was sold to the Sisters of Julie Postel, who founded a hospital on the grounds.

In 1782 Johanna Josephina of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen changed the castle to a small Style Louis XV palace.

She added the still existing protruding wing with the mansard roof and the part with the raised entrance to the old castle.

It depicts the arms of Oswald van den Bergh and his wife Maria Leopoldina of Oost-Friesland and Rittberg, who married that year.

In the wing with the Mansard roof are some rooms with Louis XVI style stucco work, since restored extensively.

In the basement, the municipal museum of Boxmeer contains a large collection of archaeological finds from the prehistory till medieval times.
