Description

The Markiezenhof (Bergs: Markiezen'of) is a late Gothic city palace in the city of Bergen op Zoom, in the Dutch province of North Brabant. It was the residence of the lords and later the marquesses of Bergen op Zoom. Exhibitions and events take place in the building. Since 2003 the monument can be seen as a miniature in Madurodam. The Markiezenhof and the Onze Lieve Vrouwekapel together form a rijksmonument that belongs to the 'Top 100 of the Rijksdienst voor de Monumentenzorg' of 1990.
