Make a cultural start to your 2022 and join other AWC Newcomers on a trip to the The Historical Museum Of The Hague followed by lunch at a local pancake restaurant (something else to tick off of your Dutch bucket list!)

Located in the historical heart of The Hague, The Historical Museum of The Hague, is housed in the former archery house of St. Sebastian's guild and dates from 1636.  

The museum's collection is highly diverse: a painted view of the city by Jan van Goyen, nearly five metres across, the superbly furnished doll’s houses by Lita de Ranitz, but also the preserved tongue and finger of the De Witt brothers! Paintings show what life was like in The Hague in days gone by and a series of townscapes from different periods show how life was lived in olden times, revealing the city’s long history as the political and administrative centre of the Netherlands.

We will meet outside the museum at 10.30am and do a self guided tour followed by a short walk through Binnehof over to the Brasserie Blufje restaurant for a traditional Dutch pancake lunch.  (Other items on the menu are available!)

Tickets for the museum are 12e (to be paid to the museum) or free with a Museumkaart.  

Lunch will also be at attendee's own expense.  

RSVP Required.
