Landgoed Ockenburgh, 17th-century estate in The Hague, Netherlands
Landgoed Ockenburgh extends across several hectares, featuring a white villa, formal gardens, walking paths, and ancient dune landscapes with centuries-old beech trees.
Jacob Westerbaen, a Dutch poet, commissioned the construction of the villa in 1654, which later served as a youth hostel for fifty years after World War II.
The estate grounds display different landscaping periods, combining straight formal avenues from the 17th century with winding paths influenced by 19th-century English garden design.
Visitors can access the estate through the main entrance on Monsterseweg, with dedicated parking spaces and tram line 3 stopping at nearby Pisuissestraat station.
Spring brings a natural display of stinzenplants, including crocuses, daffodils, wild garlic, and hyacinths, planted by early residents of the estate.
