Old City Hall (The Hague)

The Oude Stadhuis (German Altes Rathaus ) was built in the city of The Hague from 1561 to 1565, following the example of the town hall of Antwerp and is considered one of the most important Renaissance buildings in the Northern Netherlands.

Later, the construction of a new town hall was decided that could meet the needs of the ever enlarging city justice.
