Syts van Osinga was the grietman (magistrate) of the then-municipality of Doniawerstal from 1619 to 1652, and he is likely the one who had this estate built during that period.
Afterwards, the estate was inhabited by successive grietmannen Allard van Burum and Frans van Eysinga, and later, the estate became the town hall of the municipality of Doniawerstal.
In 1939, the entire building was demolished, and the current building was constructed on the existing foundation, representing a faint reflection of the old estate.
The estate is not publicly accessible.
