Best Hotel Design
Following major renovations, the idyllic rural estate Parc Broekhuizen in Leersum was opened in 2017. The historic Parc Broekhuizen rural estate is tucked away in the scenic beauty of Utrechtse Heuvelrug National Park. It is an impressive location with gorgeous buildings where past and present meet. The rural estate is hundreds of years old, but the decor is modern, yet respectful of the history of the place. Parc Broekhuizen is an amazing culinary and visual discovery.
German objects in Huis Doorn Estate and Amerongen Castle
After World War I, Count Aldenburg Bentinck gave refuge to Germany's Kaiser Wilhelm II. Ultimately, he spent a year and a half at Amerongen Castle, which is also where he signed his abdication of the throne. The desk in question is on display at Amerongen Castle. Wilhelm II moved to the nearby Huis Doorn Estate in May of 1920. Here, you will find many objects that have a connection to Berlin and Prussia. Kaiser Wilhelm II brought them with him when he fled to the Netherlands after abdicating the throne.
Amsterdam influences in Baarn
Groeneveld Castle is a fine example of a country estate built by a merchant from Amsterdam, and features a hall entirely decorated with hand-painted wallpaper from the 18th century.
