On the west bank of the Vecht, below Nieuwersluis, is the 17th century country estate Rupelmonde. The first known owner was Jean de Wolf, a well-known Amsterdam merchant. He called the country estate 'Bereveld', which was changed to ‘Rupelmonde’ by one of the subsequent occupants. That occupant was a Flemish merchant from Rupelmonde near Antwerp. Rupelmonde was a rather austere homestead but was thoroughly renovated in the style of Louis XIV and XV in 1768. The beautiful house is still privately inhabited and not open to tourists.
