View of The Pool

Highlight • Lake

De Poel is a lake located between Amstelveen and the Amsterdamse Bos. This lake was created in the 19th century by peat excavations and has never been reclaimed. Today, De Poel is used by water sports enthusiasts, but it is also well-known among restaurant lovers thanks to the adjacent two-Michelin-star restaurant "Aan de Poel."

The bridge is 175 meters long. Initially, the bridge was made of bamboo (built in 2000), but that was not resistant to the weather. The bridge was renovated in 2020 and is now made of galvanized steel with composite bamboo uprights.

This former primary school has three classrooms and was called Piet Heinschool. The coat of arms of the former municipality of Nieuwer-Amstel can be seen at the highest point of the entrance portal. The headmaster lived next door, in the white house at number 42. Like the rectory, the school was built around 1900. The typical elements from the 19th century can also be seen here: the ornamental masonry in different colors, the ceiling above the entrance. The building is no longer used as a school, but as a studio, including for artists from the neighboring Van der Togt Museum.
