De Bannink, Estate in Deventer, Netherlands.
De Bannink is an estate in Deventer with a manor house positioned along Holterweg provincial road. The grounds contain forest and farmland that together form the landscape character.
The estate began in the 17th century when Deventer merchants built a summer residence near an existing farm. This founding by wealthy city residents shaped what the place became.
Several working farms across the grounds maintain traditional farming methods that reflect how agriculture shaped this region. These active operations show how rural life continues on the property today.
Walking paths through the forest areas are open to visitors, though some sections are restricted zones. Check conditions before visiting to understand which parts of the grounds you can access.
An ancient sunken lane on the grounds once served as a postal route connecting the Netherlands and Germany. This hollowed path still visible today marks an old link that once crossed through the region.
