Description

The "Logement van Amsterdam", also known as "Huis van Amsterdam", is a historic building on the east side of Het Plein in #DenHaag (Zuid-Holland). Built in 1737 by architect Isaac de Moucheron in Louis XIV style, it served as lodging for Amsterdam's delegates to the States of Holland, replacing earlier rented accommodations acquired from the 16th century onward. Featuring a grand Amsterdam coat of arms, ornate staircases with stucco by Carlo Laghi, and preserved 18th-century elements, it lost its original function after 1795.
