Nijmegen - Commanderie van St Jan

To the north of the Grote Markt, at Franse Plaats 3, is the Commanderie van St Jan. Part of the building (ca. 1196) belonged in the Middle Ages to the Knights of St John. Since 1974 it has housed the Municipal Museum (Gemeentemuseum), with a collection covering the art and history of Nijmegen between 1000 and 1900.
