Heavenly garden in Keukenhof Netherlands
Keukenhof, also known as the Garden of Europe, is one of the world’s largest flower gardens in the Netherlands. According to the official website, Keukenhof Park covers an area of 32 hectares and approximately 7 million flower bulbs are planted in the gardens annually. While Keukenhof is most known for its tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, lilies, roses, carnations and irises can also be seen.
Keukenhof is a flower park northwest of Lisse, in the Dutch province of South Holland, where bulbous plants from horticultural companies from the bulb region are exhibited annually in the spring. Founded in 1949, the 32-hectare park attracts more than a million visitors from around the world every year.
The Keukenhof is located on a part of the estate of Keukenhof Castle. Keukenhof Estate was created in 1642 when a country house was built in the Keukenduyn of Teylingen Castle. The Keukenduyn took its name from the fact that the proceeds of the dune area such as game, cattle and all kinds of herbs and berries were intended for the household or kitchen of the castle Teylingen.
Later residents had six towers built and with this the country house became a castle with the name Keukenhof Castle. In 1857 the park was redesigned by the landscape architects Zocher and Zn., who later also designed the Vondelpark in Amsterdam.
In 1949, a flower exhibition was organized on the northern part of the estate, on the initiative of the then mayor of Lisse, W.J.H. Lambooy, and a dozen prominent flower bulb growers and under the direction of landscape architect W. van der Lee (1906-1984). He made the first drawings for the flower bulb exhibition in the Keukenhof. Shortly after its opening in 1950, he was appointed director. In 1957, the Keukenhof mill was placed on the site. In 1958, Van der Lee and Carl van Empelen were asked to think along about the plans in America. It was about the realization of the Sterling Forest Gardens. It became a “brother” of Keukenhof where Princess Beatrix planted the first flower bulb in 1959. For his expertise in the construction of the Keukenhof, Van der Lee was made a Knight in the Order of Orange-Nassau on 29 April 1969. Van der Lee remained as director until 1975.
After the death of the last lord of the Keukenhof Estate, Count J.C.E. van Lynden, in August 2003, van Lynden made keukenhof Castle foundation responsible for the conservation and exploitation of the estate, which consists of more than 230 hectares of land on which 18 national monuments stand. In 2016, the Flower Exhibition merged with Keukenhof Castle and the Graaf Carel van Lynden Foundation was founded. This foundation has a 100% interest in Keukenhof BV. Keukenhof BV carries out the operation of the Keukenhof estate on behalf of the foundation, with all the activities that go with it.
