History
The inn known as "Herberg Den Holenvoet" was originally founded in 1880. During the Battle of the Netherlands in 1940, much of Scherpenzeel was destroyed. Reconstruction efforts commenced soon after, with the official laying of the "first stone" for the new De Witte Holevoet taking place in 1941.
