Bijstein, Architectural ensemble in Putten, Netherlands
Bijstein is a country estate in Putten featuring a main residence and coach house set within a larger architectural complex. Gravel pathways, trimmed hedges, and deciduous trees create the structured landscape that defines the property.
The property developed from a medieval farm connected to monastic lands and was formally renamed in the early 17th century. It later transformed when it came under the ownership of prominent local families who reshaped it as a country residence.
The name originates from stones found on the property, reflecting the landscape's geological history. You can observe how such natural elements have been integrated into the estate's garden design and pathways.
The estate is accessible via local roads in Putten's rural area, though it remains a private monument with restricted access. The property is best viewed during the growing season when the landscaping and trees are fully developed.
The main building displays an unusual H-shaped floor plan with stepped gables and hipped roofs that suggest construction across different periods. An oriel window was added later to the right wall, creating an unexpected architectural detail on the facade.
