Gemeenlandshuis Maassluis: an interior by appointment

The Gemeenlandshuis on the Hoogstraat is a historic Delfland building in Maassluis. You visit it during announced openings or with a group arranged in advance.

Plan your visit ↗

The staircase catches the eye

A spiral wooden staircase is a striking feature of the interior. Look at its construction and the way the staircase sits within the building. That concrete detail is a good starting point for the rest of your tour.

A room to take in

In the meeting room, a beamed ceiling, chimneypiece and stained glass come together. Give the room as a whole your attention too: how do these elements relate to one another? The architecture and furnishings are the heart of the visit here.

No daily drop-in

The building is also used for events and hire. That does not mean it is open as a museum every day. Groups of six or more can request a visit through Vereniging Hendrick de Keyser; for other options, follow the announced calendar.

Before you go

There are no fixed opening days. Make sure you are booking the location at Hoogstraat 11 in Maassluis.
