dbo:abstract
  • Het Plein (Dutch pronunciation: [ˌɦət ˈplɛin]; English: The Square) is a town square in the old city centre of The Hague in the Netherlands. It is located adjacent to the Binnenhof, the meeting place of the States General of the Netherlands; the entrance to the House of Representatives can be found on Plein 2. The Mauritshuis art museum is located on Plein 29. Het Plein was originally a garden, forming a part of the Binnenhof castle, residence of the Counts of Holland. It was used to grow vegetables for the court. The garden was surrounded by a ring of canals and intersected by ditches. As a town square, Het Plein was constructed in 1632 and was inspired by the Place des Vosges in Paris. A statue of William the Silent, made by Dutch sculptor Lodewyk Royer, was installed in the centre of the square in 1848. (en)
  • Het Plein is een vierhoekig plein in het centrum van Den Haag, dat in 1632 werd aangelegd en moest lijken op het Place Royale (tegenwoordig Place des Vosges) in Parijs. Wegens de nabijheid van het Binnenhof en de daargelegen vergaderplaatsen van regering en parlement wordt het Plein vaak gebruikt als plaats voor politieke protestdemonstraties en manifestaties. (nl)
