Description

"De Blauwe Camer" in #Oosterhout (Oosterhout) was built around 1400 by Claes de Voocht. It passed to the Johannieter knights in 1420, who added a tower and extra floor. In 1544-46, Claes Vierling added a rear hall. In 1645, Norbertine sisters of Sint-Catharinadal bought it and added a monastery with cloisters and chapel. The red-brick complex shows late gothic-renaissance features like a turret, gun-loop entrance, heraldic medallion, and cloister courtyard.
