In 1794, Cornelia Catharina Hodshon commissioned the architect Abraham van der Hart to build a house for her at the Spaarne. The house is designed in Neoclassical style. Decorators from Haarlem and Amsterdam provided the beautiful stucco, the fine painting and the sublime carvings for the interior. The house remained virtually undamaged.
