Hinckaertshuis, Medieval stone house in central Groningen, Netherlands.

The Hinckaertshuis features two gabled roofs, medieval cellars, and divided light windows along its four-bay facade on Oude Kijk in 't Jatstraat.

Built around 1290, the structure underwent three major expansions over centuries, with the right section maintaining its elevated entrance and high first floor.

The building represents the architectural evolution of Groningen, from its origins as a stone house to its current status as a protected national monument.

Following restoration in 1985, the building now functions as both a residential space and an architectural office, maintaining its historical features.

The garden room contains wallpaper decorations from 1775 that incorporate the design of a gravestone by former resident Paulus 's Graeuwen.
