Koninklijk Paleis

The Koninklijk Paleis (Royal Palace) in 's Koningenwaarde, located at Vorstenplein. It is the working palace of King Arkadius IV of Batavia.

History

Since 1521 AN this palace has been used as a residence and working palace of the King of Batavia. The throne room was a public space where the crown jewels could be viewed. The throne speech was also delivered here several times. This changed when Roelof van Nederburg carried out a bomb attack in 1548 AN.

Nowadays King Arkadius IV uses this palace as a working palace, while he lives in Blanckenhof Palace.
