Huis 't Velde, Estate in Warnsveld, Netherlands.
Huis 't Velde is an estate in Warnsveld with classical architectural features including triangle-shaped pediments and shell patterns adorning its white-plastered facade. The property now operates as a conference center for police leadership training.
The estate was first documented in 1326 when Hendrik van Suderas held it as a vassal to Count Reinald II of Gelre. It has passed through multiple hands and changed purposes over the centuries before becoming a police facility.
The place now serves the police force through its use as a training center and memorial space. The Garden of Reflection behind the carriage house honors those who died in service.
The property now serves as a training center for police leadership and welcomes visitors only on designated open days. Check ahead to confirm when public access is available, as regular visiting hours are not standard.
Medieval stonework from the original structure remains preserved within the building's core beneath its classical facade. A 16th-century front door decorated with family crests still stands as a reminder of its noble past.
