Gouden Handen

Gouden Handen is an administrative building in 's-Heerenberg in Montferland municipality and serves as the main office for resident services. Located on Emmerikseweg, it handles document issuance and other municipal administrative services from a functional building structure.

The building originated as a monastery and was later converted into a modern administrative center. This transformation reflects how the site evolved from a religious function to serving the community's administrative needs.

The name Gouden Handen translates to Golden Hands in English, reflecting its function as a place of practical help for residents. This naming choice shows how the local community perceives its administrative center as a service-oriented institution.

The center is accessible on Mondays and Wednesdays during specific hours and maintains set opening times for various services. Visitors should check exact opening times before visiting and prepare required documentation in advance.

The building integrates administrative spaces with green areas, creating a pleasant environment within a modern facility. This combination of public services and nature is uncommon for this building type and contributes to a less clinical feel.
