Prinsegracht 8, The Hague, Heritage museum building in The Hague, Netherlands.

Humanity House served as an interactive museum dedicated to educating visitors about global conflicts, disasters, and refugee experiences through immersive exhibits and multimedia installations.

The building dates back to around 1645 with facade modifications in 1905, and officially opened as Humanity House on December 9, 2010, before permanently closing in November 2020.

The museum fostered empathy and understanding about humanitarian crises through simulation experiences, workshops, and debates, welcoming over 214,000 visitors during its decade of operation.

Located at Prinsegracht 8 in The Hague, the former museum building remains a designated Rijksmonument and continues its mission through online resources and digital educational programs.

The museum featured a 100-seat theatre called Genève Zaal and offered visitors the chance to experience refugee journeys firsthand through carefully designed simulation exercises.
