Allersmaborg, Ezinge

Allersmaborg is a moated manor house in Het Hogeland that spreads across 2 hectares, with a drawbridge providing access and an English garden featuring wooden structures. The property includes an orchard where traditional Groningen apple varieties such as Groninger Kroon and Zigeunerin grow today.

The property originates from the 15th century, with its oldest section built using thick walls made from large medieval bricks called monastery stones. During the 19th century it transformed into a country house, and underwent major restoration in 2007.

The estate serves the University of Groningen as a conference venue, maintaining the character of a 19th-century country house. Visitors experience how the space functions as a meeting place for academics and guests, keeping its role as a center for intellectual exchange alive.

Visits require advance arrangement since the estate operates as a conference center. Focus your exploration on the paths around the manor house and orchard, keeping in mind that some areas may be reserved for private events.

The grounds near the Reitdiep river host numerous stinsen plants, early spring flowers historically linked to Dutch estates. These flowers represent a botanical detail that flourishes within the garden layout of this location.
