Slangenburg, Medieval estate in Doetinchem, Netherlands

The Slangenburg estate extends over forested grounds featuring a castle, a moat, and structured gardens connected by a network of lanes.

General Frederik Johan van Baer acquired the castle in the 17th century and transformed the medieval structure into a residential complex through extensive renovations.

The Benedictine monastery of St. Willibrord's Abbey maintains the castle as a guesthouse, continuing centuries of spiritual traditions on the estate grounds.

Visitors can explore the estate's lanes and gardens throughout the year, with the castle located 5 kilometers from the center of Doetinchem.

The estate features a trapezoidal layout with centuries-old lanes, while a private cemetery near the moat contains the graves of former German owners.
