Description
We are going to walk in the city center, The Hague. We will visit the political center of The Netherlands, which is 800 years old.
Binnenhof has been the center of political life in The Netherlands for 800 years and is the oldest parliamentary complex in Europe.
The Binnehof complex houses the General States (Parliament of the Netherlands), the Senate, the cabinet of Prime Minister, Ridderzaal, the Dutch State Council, the Ministry of General Affairs of The Netherlands, and the Mauritshuis Royal Picture Gallery.
In 2021, the Binnenhof closed for renovation.
During our walk around the Binnenhof complex,
I will tell you about Binnenhof renovation, the modern political life of the Netherlands, the history of the adoption of the constitution, about important historical events and prominent political figures.
I will show you the place of executions and torture, the famous prison, which is now a museum. I’ll tell you about the most terrible event that shocked the whole of Europe and is the darkest spot in the history of Holland.
We continue our walk to the Mauritshuis Royal Picture Gallery building, where the famous painting by Jan Vermeer “Girl with a Pearl Earring” hangs. It is called the Dutch Mona Lisa.
I will show you where the Queen of the Netherlands and the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg, Anne Pavlovna, lived. I will tell you about the secrets of the royal family and show where Willem-Alexander works.
Please note: This is an outdoor walking tour of the city. We do not enter any museums or the Parliament building as part of the itinerary.
