Zwanenburg, Historical mansion in Bernheze, Netherlands
The Zwanenburg estate features a grand mansion surrounded by weeping willows along a mill course and natural waterways in North Brabant province.
During Operation Market Garden in September 1944, Allied paratroopers intended to land near Zwanenburg mansion but missed their target due to navigation errors.
Local volunteers from the VENEL group maintain the estate grounds through regular activities such as pollarding willows and preserving the natural environment.
The mansion grounds remain open for educational visits and nature walks, with guided tours available through the Heemkundekring de Wojstap historical society.
The property hosts an active beaver population that shapes the landscape by interacting with the waterside willows near the small ferry crossing.
