De Kroon

De Kroon is an office and residential tower in central The Hague rising about 132 meters across 41 floors. The structure integrates office spaces in the lower and middle sections with apartments distributed throughout the upper levels in a contemporary design.

The tower was built between 2008 and 2011 on the site of the former Zwarte Madonna building, which was demolished. This new construction marked a turning point in the architectural evolution of the city center.

The tower shapes the cityscape with its blend of offices and homes, showing how modern cities combine work and living spaces. People use the building daily as both workplace and residence, making it a lived-in part of the downtown area.

The building is easy to spot from the city center and stands out clearly on the skyline. Visitors can explore the area around its base, with the surrounding neighborhood well-connected to other shops and amenities.

The project was designed by architecture firm Rapp + Rapp and had a budget of about 65 million euros. It ranks among the tallest structures in the city and has become part of how people see modern The Hague.
