In Veenhuizen, history is not only tangible but still very much alive. Your journey of discovery begins at our hotel: the former health cluster from 1893. From this monumental centerpiece, you step directly into history and travel back to a world that, until recently, remained closed to the outside world.
Walk through the avenues of this unique village and discover the contrasts that shape Veenhuizen:
Discipline and care: From the imposing old prisons to the stately keepers' houses with their telling inscriptions.
Architecture: Admire the robust old barracks and the characteristic houses that recall the time of the Colony of Benevolence.
