History edit
The restaurant and hotel are located in a centuries-old building, named "Duitse Huis". It got its name from the "Hospitaalorde van St.-Marie der Duitsers", known as the Teutonic Knights, that was based here. The monastery was built in 1348. The Knights stayed there till the Napoleonic era when they sold the building. It was then converted into a Military hospital. As such, it served till 1990. After an extensive renovation, the Teutonic Knights returned in 1995 to a part of the complex. The rest was converted into a hotel which opened in 1999.[14] The complex is a Rijksmonument.[15]
