Hartekamp, Historic estate and botanical garden in Heemstede, Netherlands

The estate features a prominent villa with a tiled hipped roof, two upper floors, and a basement, surrounded by gardens and greenhouses.

Johan Hinloopen constructed the main building in 1693, and George Clifford later acquired the property in 1709, transforming it into a botanical research center.

Carl Linnaeus documented 1251 plant species across the gardens in 1737, creating the detailed Hortus Cliffortianus catalog of the botanical collection.

The estate functions as an accessible park with residences, day activity locations, medical services, and facilities including a farm and swimming pool.

A clock tower added in the 18th century stands atop the central dormer, marking the passage of time over the historic grounds.
