Sint-Agathaklooster, Gothic monastery with museum in Delft, Netherlands.
The Sint-Agathaklooster contains multiple courtyards, a chapel, and monastery buildings featuring high roofs connected by Gothic archways along Oude Delft canal.
The monastery, established in 1403 by a group of religious women including wealthy widow Alyd Busers, grew to accommodate 125 sisters during medieval times.
The complex houses the Museum Prinsenhof, displaying historical artifacts, Gothic architectural elements, and preserved bullet holes from William of Orange's assassination in 1584.
Three entrance gates provide access to the monastery grounds, including an eastern portal from 1658 adorned with relief sculptures depicting the building's functions.
The Camer van Charitaten contains a 1682 regents' chamber with period furniture and connects to Schoolstraat through three decorated portals.
