Hiking
This monumental "Castle Farm" belonged to Helkijn Castle. It was first mentioned in 1627, though it was smaller than the current structure.
As a fully walled farm, it can already be seen on, among other places, the Ferraris map (late 18th century). The year 1756 is inscribed on the living quarters, perhaps the date of the renovations.
The building is currently in poor condition... although this does result in some beautiful images (such as those of the shutters).
