Kasteel Wittem
Château Wittem is a restaurant located in Castle Wittem in Wittem, in the Netherlands. It is a fine dining restaurant that was awarded one Michelin star in 1977 and retained that rating until 1989.
In the period 1975-1979, head chef was Jan Vossen. At least in the period 1987-1990, Theus van Schaik was the head chef. Wim Rekko took over, but could not retain the star.
In 2019, after an enormous restoration and modernisation, the doors of the hotel opened again. It was accompanied by also opening a fine dining restaurant 'The Julemont' with chef Sven Nijenhuis. Restaurant Julemont is named after knight Winand of Julemont who moved into the castle with his family around 1200. He must have spent many long evenings in the company of his entourage and guests and enjoyed the rich and generously laid table and lavish meals that were prepared in the castle.
