Zeist Castle
Highlight • Castle
Once the pleasure resort of Willem Adriaan, Count of Nassau-Odijk and grandson of Prince Maurits.
Now the ideal setting for royal events, soaking up history or enjoying art and culture.
Willem Adriaan bought the manor of Zeist and the dilapidated medieval castle from the States of Utrecht. He started building a pleasure garden with the collaboration of the architects Jacob Roman, a Leiden city architect and later stadtholder architect, and Daniël Marot, a French Huguenot of international fame.

Zeist Town Hall
Highlight • Monument
The town hall from 1877, which served until 1909, is of architectural value due to its application of the neo-baroque style. On December 27, 1905, a competition was held for a design for a new town hall. The design by the 25-year-old architect Jan Stuivinga was awarded the first prize. This design was elaborated and in 1908 a whole new town hall on Het Rond was realized.
In October 1976 a fierce fire destroyed part of the town hall. The entire top floor went up in flames. In 1977 it was decided to start a new building at the same time as the restoration of the town hall. Design by architect J. Lengkeek, the construction of the new part of the town hall started in 1982 and completed in 1984.
