Oud Gouvernement, Government building in Binnenstad, Maastricht, Netherlands
The Oud Gouvernement features a tall tower with expressionist brick architecture, yellow facades, and decorative elements made of Naamse stone at Bouillonstraat 1.
Built in 1935 by architect Gustav Cornelis Bremer, this structure replaced the former military governor residence that had occupied the site since the 17th century.
The building displays twenty sandstone reliefs by Charles Vos depicting provincial coats of arms and symbols representing the region's agricultural and mining heritage.
The Faculty of Law of Maastricht University occupies the building, providing educational facilities and a courtyard with a Law Café for 3,400 students.
Three ceremonial halls inside feature Norwegian slate floors, Italian travertine walls, and US redwood paneling, demonstrating the use of international materials.
