Buitenrust House, Estate and palace at Scheveningseweg, The Hague, Netherlands
Buitenrust House displayed the features of Dutch Baroque architecture with ornate decorations and symmetrical designs across its facade and interior spaces.
Built in 1708 by architect Jacobus Roman, the estate served as a residence for notable figures including Queen Dowager Anna Pavlovna Romanova until 1912.
The property connected Dutch and Russian influences through its Russian Orthodox chapel and its role as a residence for the daughter of the Russian Tsar.
Located at coordinates 52.0878° N and 4.295981° E, the former site of Buitenrust House now stands near the grounds of the Peace Palace.
The estate, initially known as Hessenhof, was constructed by Landgrave Philip of Hesse-Philippsthal before becoming part of The Hague's diplomatic quarter.
