No one knows exactly how the Kattenberg came into being. The mound was probably created when the pond of the Nijenburg manor was excavated. De Kattenberg probably originated around 1707 and the linden was also planted at that time.

Just climb the special stairs and you have a different perspective on the beautiful area. The old tree at the top emerged battered in the battle with storm Poly.
