The village has a royal touch, in the castle Drakensteyn that the then princess Beatrix bought in the year 1959. After her tonal distance she went to live here again. A large boulder at the beginning of the Dorpsstraat, the story goes that the stone bleeds if you prick it with a pin.

The origin of this boulder is not entirely clear. However, you can easily test for yourself on site whether it actually bleeds when you prick it.
