Slangevecht, Historic estate house in Breukelen, Netherlands.

The Slangevecht estate features a stone outer wall that replaced the original wooden structure in 1915, standing along the Vecht river.

Leonard Corneille Dudok de Wit acquired the estate in the mid-19th century, establishing it as a prominent residence for his extensive collection of travel artifacts.

The estate housed a museum of Land and Ethnology from 1889, which attracted thousands of visitors and used ticket proceeds to support local communities.

The estate now operates as a restaurant across two floors, offering dining spaces with views of the Vecht river and surrounding gardens.

Following Dudok de Wit's wishes, the estate's legacy continues through an annual tradition of providing free poffertjes to local schoolchildren every October 3rd.
