Prince's Chamber (guest room), Muiderslot Castle, Netherlands

This photo shows our guide explaining the "Prince's Chamber" of the castle. It's the guest room for important guests, and included it's own dining table and a small bed. The bed was typical of the time period. It's significantly shorter than today's beds. According to our guide, people of the time didn't sleep laying down, but sitting up instead. They believed it was healther for the heart.... Muiderslot Castle, Netherlands
