Huis te Echten, Manor estate in De Wolden, Netherlands.

The rectangular manor features a central courtyard design with two extending wings on the north and south sides of the main structure.

The estate traces its origins to the 14th century when it belonged to the lords of Coevorden, with archaeological evidence indicating construction in the 15th century.

Religious services were conducted within the manor's halls after the Reformation, led by Silesian preacher David Franzenius for the local community.

The estate underwent extensive restoration between 1976 and 1981 under the supervision of the Bureau Monumentenzorg of Drenthe province.

The property includes multiple sundials, including a specific Louis XIV style timepiece from the early nineteenth century with distinctive oval dials.
