Frequently asked questions
Visitor Information
This is the only medieval guest house in the Netherlands that has been preserved, including its interior. Here, you can still imagine how the residents must have lived. Initially, the guest house was only intended for the sick. Later, it became a guest house with separate sections for women and men. The Men's Ward and Chapel of the St. Pieters- en Blokland Guest House were already in use in the 15th and 16th centuries.
Volunteer
We would love to! We are looking for volunteers for Hospitality & Supervision. You can find the vacancies here.
