Wassenaar
Wassenaar was first mentioned in the Middle Ages and developed in the 17th century into a country estate area for wealthy residents of The Hague. With impressive villas, Castle De Wittenburg, and the Clingendael estate, it became a popular place to live. In the 20th century, many expats and diplomats settled here, partly due to the proximity of international institutions.
Wassenaar is known for its peace, space, and greenery. Surrounded by dunes, forests, and the beach, it is the ideal place for outdoor enthusiasts. The famous Duinrell amusement park offers fun and relaxation for all ages. The historic village center features charming streets, boutiques, and cozy cafés. The atmosphere is friendly and elegant, with plenty of opportunities to stroll along stately estates and castles.

Wassenaar is ideal for families. There are good (international) schools, sports clubs, and safe, green neighborhoods where children can grow up freely.
