Plekenpol, Manor estate in Winterswijk, Netherlands

The Plekenpol estate features two hardstone pillars at its entrance, decorated with intricate leaf motifs and bearing the name inscription.

During the 14th century, Plekenpol functioned as a central point for extensive goods management and maintained special rights, including asylum privileges.

The estate incorporated a bleaching field for fabrics and the Berenschots watermill, demonstrating traditional Dutch agricultural and industrial practices.

The estate stands at coordinates 51.94684 latitude and 6.70617 longitude, with its pillars designated as national monument number 39077.

The medieval castle that once stood on the grounds has disappeared, but the original moat structures and avenue layouts remain visible today.
