The village is known for the many estates that wealthy Amsterdammers had built here in the 17th century. First, large quantities of sand were dug up and transported to Amsterdam by barge. This sand was used to build the famous canal belt, among other things. Stately summer residences were then built on the vacant plots. The showpiece is without a doubt the Trombenburgh house, from 1672, which lies like a ship in the water. The client was Cornelis Tromp, the son of naval hero Maarten Harpertsz Tromp. From the terrace on the roof you could see the ships on the Zuiderzee at the time.

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.

Please note that there is also a large part of the MTB course. It is a beautiful ride through the heathland of Hilversum Blaricum and part of the forest.
