The former farmhouse, Torenlaan 2, dates from 1698. The house next door houses the restaurant da Bruno, which dates from 1916.

A little further towards Huizen is a very old former farmhouse at Achterom 7.
This building did house the Indonesian restaurant Merpatis.
Both the building and the haystack are national monuments. The building dates from 1657.
The Reformed Church is located approximately 200 meters back on Torenlaan.
This church probably dates from 1512, making it the oldest building in Blaricum (this date is indicated on the oldest clock).
The land registry records the year 1696; that year, a major fire severely damaged the church, which was subsequently restored.
