Kneuterdijk Palace, Royal palace in The Hague, Netherlands.

The Louis XIV style palace, constructed in 1716 by architect Daniel Marot, features grand architectural elements and a preserved Gothic Hall.

Count Johan Hendrik of Wassenaer-Obdam commissioned the palace, which later became the residence of King William II and Queen Anna Paulowna.

The Gothic Hall, modeled after Christ Church Oxford's dining hall, displays the palace's connection to European architectural traditions.

The Netherlands Council of State currently operates in the palace, which underwent complete restoration work finishing in 2001.

After World War II, the palace's former ballroom served as a courtroom for trials of Dutch war criminals, where death sentences were issued.
