Golden Age in The Hague
Exhibition
The Hague didn’t just form the centre of power and politics of our country in those days. The Oranjes, regents with great power, lived here. Surrounding the Binnenhof, the oldest governmental centre in the world, impressive city palaces arose for diplomats and wealthy citizens. The exhibit zooms in on The Hague's society during this time and explores the differences between our image and reality. Was everything really as ‘golden’ as it seems?<br />
