Round House (Nunspeet, Netherlands)

The estate included roughly the area between Nunspeet railway station and Vierhouten, with remains of the park still visible in the form of ponds surrounded with Rhododendron bushes and a Honey locust.

Frank van vloten constructed a 600 mm (1 ft 11+5⁄8 in) pony-drawn tramway from his estate to Nunspeet railway station.

The house and its surroundings became now property of Staatsbosbeheer and started deteriorating, other parts of the estate were clearcut by a local forester.

Articles published in 1976 and 2006 speculated that Frank van Vloten organised orgies and occult rituals at the Round House.

In 2012 a controversial book was published which stated that Frank van Vloten was a member of a Pan-Germanist cult[2] and the publication attracted some media coverage.

There are absolutely no grounds to suspect Frank van Vloten as a pan-German occultist and a lot of written statements have proven that nothing out of the ordinary happened in the extraordinary house.
