Exploring Hazerswoude-Dorp from above | A drone's journey through Dutch history

Soar through the skies with our latest drone video over Hazerswoude-Dorp, a village that lies at the heart of the Green Heart in the Netherlands, positioned among the cities of Leiden, Alphen aan den Rijn, Boskoop, and Benthuizen.

Formerly the largest core within the Rijnwoude municipality until January 1, 2014, Hazerswoude-Dorp boasts a rich history dating back to Roman times. The village we see today began to take shape in the 13th century with the reclamation of its peaty and wooded lands. By the 16th century, the establishment of tree nurseries provided an economic boost, further solidifying Hazerswoude-Dorp's status as a significant agricultural village by the 18th century.

Our drone captures the unique beauty of Hazerswoude-Dorp, from its historical sites to its modern-day charm. Marvel at the architectural wonders such as the former town hall by architect Jan Dekker (1926), the Hervormde Kerk designed by Pieter Post (1664), the Roman Catholic church (1881), and the Reformed church (1969). Glide over the Dorpsstraat 66 to catch a glimpse of the historic museum housed in a building from around 1630.

Not to be missed are the village's four windmills – the Rooie Wip, the Gere Molen (or Blauwe Wip), the Rietveldse Molen, and the Nieuw Leven, the latter standing proud for nearly two centuries. Additionally, our journey takes us over the picturesque canal village of Rietveld, showcasing the serene waterways that define this idyllic Dutch landscape.

Join us as we uncover the enduring allure of Hazerswoude-Dorp, a village that encapsulates the essence of Dutch heritage and the timeless beauty of the Green Heart. Whether you're a history aficionado, a nature lover, or someone who appreciates the art of drone cinematography, this video invites you to experience the tranquility and historical richness of Hazerswoude-Dorp from an unparalleled perspective.
