Henkenshage is a notable building located in the municipality of Meierijstad in the Netherlands. It is a former fortified farmhouse, known in the 14th century as a Strijpe or Streepe. The building, often mistaken for a castle, is not a real castle but rather a manor house. In 1818, Henkenshage was bought by Dutch diplomat and civil servant Christaan Diederik Emerens Johan Bangeman Huygens, who was Minister Plenipotentiary of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Washington, D.C. from 1825 to 1832. Born in Sint-Oedenrode, he lived at the mansion for a period and in 1843 it went to his only son, Rutger Bangeman Huygens van Löwendal. The property was bought in 1850 by Peter Jacob Girard de Mielet van Coehoorn and was given its present form as a country stay. During World War II, Henkenshage was used as a distribution centre, and during the liberation of Holland (Operation Market Garden) in 1944 it was the headquarters of the US 101st Airborne Division. It is now known as Kasteel Henkenshage and is a Wedding and Function Centre.

The Moerkuilen are, along with the Dommelbeemden a forestry area in a bend of the Dommel river north east of Nijnsel in Meierijstad. It is located at the Lieshoutse Dijk, not far from the A50 motorway. The protected area measures over 100 acres and connects with the Vresselse Bossen (Vresselsh Forests) in the south. The Moerkuilen are part of the larger area Het Groene Woud. The lake in a lowland peat soil, was created by the dredging of Moer, which is quagmire consisting of decayed plant material that could be used as peat (fuel) after drying. The Moerkuilen borders the Dommelbeemden. It is a moore lake in the Dommel valley, and is known for water lilies, potamogeton, calla and carex species. Around the fish-rich peat lake, which attracts many birds, is a swamp forest (carr) bordered by forestry river dunes. There is a varied flora including common cow wheat and may lily. The river Dommel streamed past it over a higher plateau. Because of this there remains a striking steep edge. There are different trails through the terrain. There is a 4.5 km long marked trail. At the road "Lieshoutse Dijk" is a car park with an information board on the flora and fauna.

The Dommelbeemden are, along with the Moerkuilen a forestry area in a bend of the Dommel river northeast of Nijnsel in Meierijstad. It is located at the Lieshoutse Dijk, not far from the A50 motorway. The protected area measures over 100 acres. The Dommelbeemden are part of the larger area Het Groene Woud.This diverse area was designated as a natural monument in 1977. The most original part and natural state of the Dommel can be found between Eindhoven and Boxtel and hence in the Dommelbeemden. Here the Dommel has still its original winds and meanders and forms a cultural-historical and valuable landscape area. The Dommelbeemden consist of species-poor meadows with willows and include rattles and orchids. There are wet meadows in which rare plants such as Marsh Lousewort can be found. A clogging old meander of the Dommel there is filled with water lilies. At a higher elevation, which is part of the Central Brabant Sand Ridge, there are traditional "bolakkers" (high fields). The meadows are the low-lying grasslands directly along the Dommel. Through regular flooding these grounds were once only suitable as a hayfield. This hay was important because it served as winter feed for livestock. Originally, this landscape was interspersed with carrs and coppice hedges. On the upper parts of the river valley, there are bolakkers (high fields) where mainly cereals were cultivated. The area is known to have rare plants and animals.In the southeast the area connects with the Vresselse Bossen. The current management is aiming to restore the old landscape of the area as much as possible. The meadows are extensive grazed and Staatsbosbeheer replanted hedges and knotted willows.
