Schathoes

Schathoes is a restaurant and working farm in Zuidhorn housed in a historic building from the early 1600s. The property features dining rooms in the restored structure and views of the surrounding agricultural landscape.

The building dates to 1633 and originally served as a schathuis, an ancillary structure of a noble estate reflecting regional architectural trends of that era. Its long history as a farm remains visible in the land use and the character of the structure.

Schathoes operates as both a working farm and restaurant, preserving traditional Dutch farming practices while guests dine. The space reflects rural life, allowing visitors to experience agricultural heritage directly during their meal.

The building contains multiple dining rooms with views of the fields and as a protected monument requires careful movement through the historic spaces. Visitors should expect traditional rooms and their limited modifications.

The name schathuis refers to the building's original function storing treasures and revenues for a nearby noble family. This historical connection gives the restaurant a special relationship to the region's past.
