Ter Coulster

Ter Coulster is an estate with a castle and country house located north of the North Sea Canal. The grounds feature forests, water features, and pathways that connect different parts of the property.

Gijsbert Fontein Verschuir purchased the property in 1808 and restructured the forest to create the avenue layout that defines the landscape today. This transformation shaped the estate's current appearance.

Two decorated gate pillars mark the entrance to the estate, displaying the coats of arms that represent the historical ownership lineage.

Visitors can explore the grounds during regular opening hours with guided tours available through the gardens and to the Tea Pavilion. The entire property is designed for walking, with well-maintained paths throughout.

Buried beneath an artificial mound on the property are the remains of a historic ice cellar once used to preserve food. This hidden structure demonstrates how people in earlier times stored ice for extended periods.
