Pelstergasthuis, Medieval almshouse in Groningen, Netherlands.
Pelstergasthuis consists of three connected courtyards and a chapel, featuring traditional Dutch architectural elements and decorative details throughout the complex.
The Holy Spirit Masters established this almshouse in the 12th century to provide shelter and medical care for pilgrims, elderly citizens, and sick individuals.
The chapel contains the oldest bell in Groningen and displays the Order's emblem, a black oval shield with a double white cross, representing centuries of charitable work.
