Overview
Visit the most beautiful 'outside of Amsterdam'
Beeckestijn is one of the few large 18th-century country houses in Kennemerland that has been preserved in its entirety. Rich Amsterdammers spent their summers on this imposing country estate with a magnificent facade in Louis XIV style, on which the patrons' coats of arms adorn. The busy social life of the city continued here 'outside': guests were received, dined and games played.
If you visit the Beeckestijn country estate, you will feel like a rich Amsterdam regent. Stroll through the long marble hallway with beautiful stucco, admire the paintings in the period rooms, each with its own color and style, or sit down at a table in the cozy historic kitchen. Follow in the footsteps of the inhabitants of yesteryear to the garden.
The gardens and park around the house are unique by Dutch standards. You will find a collection of classical, geometrically landscaped gardens. Are you coming over?
