Huys Clingendael, 17th-century manor house in Wassenaar, Netherlands.

The manor house features Dutch Baroque architectural elements with a symmetrical design, intricate ornamental details, and a grand entrance flanked by columns.

Built between 1642 and 1660 for the Doublet family, who served as high-ranking officials in the Republic of the Seven United Provinces.

The estate houses the Netherlands Institute of International Relations since 1982, making it a center for diplomatic research and studies.

The gardens and parkland remain open to visitors throughout the year, with the Japanese Garden accessible during specific spring and autumn periods.

The property contains multiple World War II bunkers from when Reichskommissar Arthur Seyss-Inquart occupied the estate during German occupation.
