    Kasteel De Essenburgh is a castle and estate from 1652. You can visit the estate freely, the house - which is now a hotel - is not.

      In 1929, "a natural spring was discovered in the garden of this estate, the healing water of which was marketed as Essenburgher Mineral Water. A chemical examination showed that the water contained radium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, sulphate and carbonate, a composition that is the same as that of the Sprudel spring in Karlsbad. The two wells that rise in a small pond have a constant temperature of 10 degrees. Shortly after the discovery, the spring still supplied 400 litres of water per hour, so that even the construction of a Kurhaus was considered. However, since the life force of the spring has diminished considerably, the mineral-rich water flows away unused"

      From 'Het Merckwaerdigste Meyn Bekend' part 3, page 92 (March 1966)
