Trêveszaal

The Trêveszaal is a government hall located within The Hague's Binnenhof complex, featuring elaborate wall decorations and large crystal chandeliers throughout its interior. The space was originally designed at the end of the 17th century and continues to function for formal meetings today.

The hall was built at the end of the 17th century following plans by architect Daniel Marot to create a fitting space for diplomatic meetings. During the 1800s, it temporarily served as a meeting place for one of the Dutch Parliament's chambers.

The hall continues to serve as a space where important government decisions are shaped. Visitors can sense its role in Dutch political life through the formal yet working atmosphere that fills the rooms.

The hall is part of the Binnenhof complex and typically requires prior arrangement to visit, as it remains an active government space. Check ahead for visiting conditions since access depends on official schedules and current events.

The hall was originally designed following French architectural traditions and bears a name derived from French origins. This influence is visible in details like the elaborate ceiling designs and the overall composition of the room.
