The castle was first mentioned in 1403, but it presumably already existed much longer at that time. After it came into the possession of the Hornes in 1462, it came under Brabant's control. During the Guelders Wars, it was shelled by the Guelders. The castle originally had a high keep, which was certainly still intact until 1825, but was later demolished.

Bishop Michael Ophovius of the Diocese of 's-Hertogenbosch, who was driven out of 's-Hertogenbosch by Frederik Hendrik in 1629, found shelter in the castle of Geldrop from 1631 to 1636, before he left for Antwerp.

There is a nice garden to the west of the castle. Lovely to take a break.
