About

This little folly piece of architecture overlooks a sweet field in the middle of the estate Gooilust. If you want to find it you might have to search for it, because it is well hidden on the estate and there are no signs to the folly.

Once you've found it, look through the little peephole in the door and you will discover a miniature universe created by B.I. Witlox.
