Reis van de parels

Until 9 March 2025 from 10:00 to 17:00

Exhibition

In de tentoonstelling Reis van de parels. Macht van de adel in de lage landen, bruidsschatten en erfenissen volg je de parels van de adel: hun kastelen, rechten en plichten, huwelijksgeschenken en kinderen. Ga op reis en ontdek de rijkdom van de adel.

Bezit en macht

Via erfenissen, veroveringen en huwelijken kunnen bezit en macht groeien. Rijke adellijke erfdochters zijn geliefd als huwelijkspartners. Edelvrouwen dragen hun bezit in de vorm van juwelen met zich mee en tonen zo hun rijkdom. Vooral parels zijn in de zeventiende eeuw zeer geliefd. Parels kunnen zelfs een kasteel financieren!

Emilia van Oranje Nassau en Kasteel Wijchen

In Reis van de parels vertelt Museum Kasteel Wijchen hoe de adel in Gelre macht verwerft en welke rol bruidsschatten en erfenissen hierin spelen. Ontdek de heerlijke rechten van de heren Bronckhorst-Batenburg en maak kennis met Emilia van Oranje Nassau. Hoe zet zij haar erfenis in om Kasteel Wijchen begin 17e eeuw te kopen? Zijn het haar smeekbrieven of haar parels?
