Hof van Kamerijk, Protected palace in Mechelen, Belgium.

The Hof van Kamerijk palace stands on Keizerstraat 3, next to Sint-Pieters-en-Pauluskerk church and across from the Hof van Savoye residence.

Architect Antoon I Keldermans designed this palace, which became known as Keizershof after hosting royal residents including future Emperor Charles V.

The original structure contained an honor courtyard, council chamber, stables, racket court, shooting range, and bathing facilities for nobility gatherings.

The palace currently functions as the municipal theater of Mechelen, following extensive renovations that restored the facade to its historical appearance.

Margaret of York selected this location after becoming a widow in 1477, making it a center for raising future European monarchs.
