The Markiezenhof is one of the most beautiful city palaces of Western Europe.

It was originally built as residential palace for the Lords and Marquises of Bergen op Zoom. Nowadays it is a museum of the culture and history of Bergen op Zoom. It also houses the city archives. This institution aims to administer and disseminate the cultural heritage of the town and region and to make it accessible to a wide audience. The link between past, present and future plays a key role in all activities of The Markiezenhof.

The Markiezenhof was built at the end of 15th century by the famous Mechlin master builders Anthonie and Rombout Keldermans. The construction was commissioned by Jan II and Jan III of Glymes, lords of Bergen op Zoom. The son of Jan III, Antoon of Glymes, was elevated to the rank of Marquis in 1533. The splendour and status that they achieved is reflected in the palatial character of De Markiezenhof.

In the course of time The Markiezenhof has been used as a residential palace, the official seat of the area The Markiezaat, a military hospital, barracks and since 1968, a museum.

A visit to The Markiezenhof is a journey of discovery through rooms decorated as they were in the times of the Marquises, a fairground museum, a collection of objects, pictures and audiovisual presentations about Bergen op Zoom’s history and a collection of caricatures and cartoons. The Markiezenhof’s educational project is inspiring and stimulating, an interactive quest through the city’s history and culture in medieval surroundings.

Hey Eddy, ik heb een belgisch/nederlandse map van 150k+ pop met 4500+ assets en dit blijft toch het pareltje van de stad. Bedankt voor je tijd en talent! Een echte gamechanger.
Als je me een berichtje stuurt met je paypal link wil ik zelfs iets doneren ((:

Very nice to see that the monumental building which is on walking distance for me, is incorporated in this game. Cannot wait to put it into a city in the game.

This building is locked for me, and gives no information what is required to unlock. Any help?
