Kasteel Stoutenburg, Medieval château in Leusden, Netherlands.
The estate features deciduous forests with stinsenplants, gardens, and natural landscapes spread across several hectares near the Barneveldse Beek river.
Walter van Amersfoort constructed the first castle in 1259, which was later demolished in the 16th century and replaced by a country house built by the van Beye family.
The Franciscans acquired the property in 1948 and established an environmental project connecting religious values with nature conservation until 2017.
The Utrecht Landscape Foundation manages the estate since 2000, focusing on preserving both natural areas and historical elements of the property.
During World War II, the castle provided shelter for Jewish people and other refugees while sustaining damage from multiple combat situations.
