's-Hertogenbosch - Museum of North Brabant

(Local Name: Central Noordbrabants Museum) Since 1987 the Museum of North Brabant (Central Noordbrabants Museum) has been housed in the former Gouvernementshuis at Verwersstraat 41. This 18th century building in Louis XVI style was from 1820 the official residence of the governor of the town and from 1983 the residence of the Queen's Commissioner for the province. The original palace was extended by the addition of two wings. The Museum has collections of Roman, Germanic, Frankish and later antiquities, manuscripts, pictures, drawings, maps and coins of 's-Hertogenbosch and the province of Noord-Brabant. There is also a large library.
