Drakensteyn Castle

Description

In 1360 the first mention is made of a Drakesteyn homestead. The ancient history of Drakensteyn is closely linked to that of Ridderhofstede Drakenburg, which was located nearby and was demolished in the 19th century.

In the Golden Age, a large number of castles and country houses were rebuilt and built in the Laagte van Pijnenburg, such as Soestdijk - later Soestdijk Palace -, De Hooge Vuursche Castle, De Eult, Pijnenburg, Eeuwijckshoeve.
