Hof Espelo, Estate with visitor center near Enschede, Netherlands
The estate features a series of intersecting beech-lined avenues, brooks, farmhouses, and a manor house designed in the Amsterdam School style.
The estate first appeared in Pope Innocent III's document from 1215 when it belonged to the chapter of Saint Peter in Utrecht.
The property includes seven farmhouses and a former coach house transformed into an educational center focusing on regional agricultural traditions.
Landschap Overijssel manages the 150-hectare estate, which includes walking paths, a children's forest, and multiple water features.
During World War II, Germans constructed aircraft runways covered with nets on the estate grounds, with sections still visible today.
