Huis Landfort, Megchelen, National heritage house in Megchelen, Netherlands

Huis Landfort stands within a 50-hectare estate featuring a mansion with period rooms, an ornate park, and a vegetable garden surrounded by water.

The estate traces its origins to 1434 when Derick Van Bronckhorst and Batenburg acquired the property, then known as Lanck Voort, near the Oude IJssel river.

Johann Albert Luyken incorporated a medical and botanical library along with an indoor orangery equipped with an advanced hot air heating system in the 1820s.

The estate opens to visitors on Fridays and Saturdays from April through October, with guided tours available through online registration at Erfgoed Landfort foundation.

The landscape park, designed by Jan David Zocher Jr, contains winding paths, canals, and features an Oriental dovecote among its garden ornaments.
