Morning April in hamlet park estate Haanwijk.

About the picture
A view of Haanwijk, a hamlet in the Netherlands. A forest path runs to the right. To the right and slightly further back are two brick buildings. The first is a simple house with a pitched roof; the second has a slightly flatter roof. Both are traditional and well-maintained, typical of a small Brabant hamlet. Behind these houses stands a larger, more stately building. It has a decorative tower with a spire and a clock. It lends the surroundings a historic atmosphere.
It is early April, but the trees in the foreground are still bare: tall trunks with thin, branching silhouettes against a pale sky. On the left are bicycle racks, which can be found everywhere in the Netherlands.

About estate Haanwijk

Haanwijk is an estate and nature reserve located near Halder, which is in the territory of the municipality of Sint-Michielsgestel in the province of North Brabant in the Netherlands.

Haanwijk is approximately 110 hectares in size and includes a manor house, a bake house, a spring house and farmhouses. Several buildings are on the national monument list.

In addition, Haanwijk has park forests with ancient trees, historic dikes and the characteristics of a stream valley landscape.
Haanwijk is located near the confluence of the Dommel and Essche Stroom rivers.

During Roman times, the area was already inhabited. At Halder and Ruimel remains of Roman villas were found that were situated on donks. In the Middle Ages land reclamation took place and low dikes were constructed to protect against flooding.
