Landgoed De Wielewaal

Landgoed De Wielewaal is a large estate in northern Eindhoven with a mansion surrounded by extensive forested grounds, formal gardens, and pathways. The entire property provides multiple open spaces and recreational areas set within its wooded landscape.

Anton Philips purchased the property in 1912 and transformed heathland into a forest over time. His son Frits lived there from 1934 to 2005, establishing a long period of family ownership and habitation.

The estate reflects the industrial legacy of the Philips family, whose work shaped Eindhoven. The spaces and grounds today still show the lifestyle of these business leaders and the importance they placed on their natural surroundings.

The property is currently being developed by the city for public access. Visitors should check for updates on accessibility and plan to explore the new public facilities and grounds in the coming years.

The mansion contains an embedded Bentley display room and a private wine cellar within its structure. These features reveal the luxury standard the family lived in and the personal interests that shaped their home.
