Nice to know: The hofje was built in 1878 by order of King William III to house the staff of the Royal Stables. Originally, there was a large communal garden in the centre, which was later replaced by private front gardens before World War II. After the royal staff moved out, the houses were occupied by artists. Since the 1930s and 1940s, it became known as the Artiestenhofje (Artists’ Courtyard), a cultural meeting point in The Hague. Though there were post-war plans to demolish it due to its deteriorated state, the Ministry of Reconstruction decided instead to restore it in 1952. Today, the Artiestenhofje remains a green oasis in the city and is still a beloved residence for artists.
