”I’m not in the least bit snobby. I merely have exacting standards about an extremely large range of things.“ Miles Jupp, In and Out of the Kitchen , Series 3, episode 4.
Huis Doorn dates from the late 13th century. It was rebuilt in 1796 to more or less the present condition. In 1919 it was bought by the former Kaiser Wilhelm II who had fled to the Netherlands after the First World War. He built a gatehouse and lived in Huis Doorn until his death in 1941. After the Second World War Huis Doorn was confiscated by the Dutch Government and it has been a museum since the Kaiser’s death. Located in Doorn, Utrecht, The Netherlands
The De Haar Castle and surrounding buildings were built between 1892 and 1912 on the ruins of the 12th/13th century castle. Located in Haarzuilens, Utrecht, The Netherlands.

As you are already aware ipernity is under threat of closure.
However, I’m pleased to say that a crowdfunding campaign has been initiated to raise funds to secure the platform's short term future in the first instance, but ultimately with a view to acquiring it for the community.
Many have already made a donation, myself included, and the campaign has got off to a great start, but there is still a way to go and less than a fortnight to reach the target … otherwise the site will almost certainly close.
So, I would urge you, if you haven't already made a pledge, but want ipernity to survive to follow the link below and donate as much as you can afford.
Help Save Ipernity
This is a unique opportunity then for everyone who loves ipernity and who wants it to not only survive, but to become somewhere we can call home for many years to come to help secure its future. Yes, there are still questions to be answered and hurdles to be overcome, but together we really can make a difference.
Please support the campaign in any way you can, be that by making a donation, encouraging your friends and family to do so, or even just by mentioning it on social media such as Facebook or Twitter.
Best wishes
PAUL
