Landgoed te Werve

Landgoed te Werve is an estate with a manor house, a restored dovecote from the 15th century, and natural landscapes across about 26 hectares in Rijswijk. The property features a large pond, maintained gardens, and open grounds that reflect the character of a traditional Dutch country estate.

The estate was established as a manor house with colonial influences and served as a rural residence for centuries. Its dovecote, dating to the 15th century, stands as one of the oldest surviving structures on the grounds.

The grounds serve as a gathering place for weddings, celebrations, and meetings, continuing a Dutch tradition of using historic estates for community events. Visitors experience how this location brings people together while maintaining its role as a meaningful social space.

The grounds are easy to visit with ample parking available and buildings designed for wheelchair access. Indoor spaces can accommodate groups of varying sizes, making it suitable for private visits or organized tours.

The grounds maintain beehives for honey production and practice sustainable management of their own resources. A seasonal outdoor venue called Te Werve Buiten operates from May through September, offering open-air event spaces.
