History
House Broeckmeulen was built in 1750, originally as a canons’ house for secular Roman Catholic clergy. Later, it became a convent for nuns, where the rules within the walls were stricter. In the 20th century, a general practitioner and his family lived there. Just before the turn of the century, the building was purchased by the Mulleners family and beautifully restored.

Let the charm of Thorn capture your heart!
Thorn, Limburg
Over 800 years ago, Thorn was a miniature principality. The historic core of the town, now a protected cityscape, is a remnant of this. Picturesque white houses, authentic monumental buildings from the 15th to 18th centuries, winding streets paved with original Maas limestone, intimate courtyards, and floor mosaics alternate throughout. Walking opportunities in the area are endless. The Maas offers many possibilities for boating, surfing, sailing, and canoeing. Maastricht is a little less than a half-hour drive away. Golf Club Land van Thorn in Hunsel is 4 km away.
