Berkenrode

The castle was rebuilt and despite suffering another fire in 1747 the settlement continued to function as a separate municipality with its own chapel up to 1857, when the town was annexed by Heemstede.

The new Lord of Berkenrode, Benjamin Pouille, granted the 500 Catholics a small portion of land to build a schuilkerk, and they continued to bury their dead in the Protestant church of Heemstede.

Lestevenon, who called himself "heer van Berkenrode", had the castle rebuilt and in 1748 it was the scene of a grand fireworks display to celebrate the young prince Willem V, who at the age of one month, was travelling on his first "state visit" with his mother, the English-born Anne, Princess Royal and Princess of Orange on April 11, 1748.

[4] However, the rebuilt house was demolished in 1797 by Lestevenon's successor as owner, Jan Pieter van Wickevoort Crommelin [nl].

On 14 February 1740 King Desinganadu and Stein van Gollenesse had a meeting along with Berkenrode board of Dutch ship.
