A very beautifully maintained castle along De Kromme Rijn. There is a large garden around it that could use some maintenance. If you drive along the main road from W.b.D towards Bunnik, the castle shines on the right side of the road.

Beautiful walks possible around Beverweerd Castle. The castle grounds are currently "no trespassing". That doesn't matter for the walk. Walked via clog paths. Largely also accessible with a dog on a leash. Approximately 5 kilometers. Had lunch at Landrucci, a charming, somewhat Italian farm shop with a covered veranda.

Worth the effort. Visited an exhibition by Gert Jan Jansen. Beautiful building in a beautiful location. Lots of history. Beautiful estate. The paintings of this master forger are also a journey through (art) history.

Always nice to see the great collection of paintings by master copied Janssen. Impressive that someone masters so many painting styles.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
