Wester-Amstel, Historical estate along Amstel River in Amstelveen, Netherlands
Wester-Amstel is a manor house along the Amstel River in Amstelveen featuring a rectangular main structure with a stone platform entrance and formal gardens surrounding the property. Multiple pathways wind through the grounds, creating distinct walking areas and connections to different sections of the estate.
The manor house was built in 1662 and served as an inn through the 18th and 19th centuries, operating as a public lodging during that period. A major restoration in 1990 stabilized the structure and preserved its architectural character for future generations.
The gardens of Wester-Amstel are maintained through community involvement, with local volunteers dedicating their time to preserve this North Holland heritage site.
The property is located at Amsteldijk Noord 55 and is easily reached on foot or by bicycle, sitting directly along the riverbank. The gardens and pathways are accessible for walking, with sturdy footwear recommended for exploring the grounds.
The south facing wall displays perfectly symmetrical window placement that balances the home's proportions. The north side reveals layers of plaster work with geometric block patterns that show how Dutch builders decorated their houses centuries ago.
