Groot Tuighuis
About

Groot Tuighuis in ’s‑Hertogenbosch is a historic landmark that reveals the city’s past through its architecture and rich collection of archaeological and archival treasures. Once known as the Old St. James Church and later used as the city’s arsenal, the building has evolved over centuries into a vibrant heritage center. Inside, visitors can explore exhibitions that trace the story of Den Bosch from its earliest settlements to modern times, supported by original documents, artefacts, and interactive displays. The atmospheric interior, with its medieval foundations and later additions, reflects the layered history of the city itself. Today, Groot Tuighuis serves as the home of Erfgoed ’s‑Hertogenbosch, offering free access to anyone interested in discovering how the city grew, changed, and preserved its identity across the ages.
