Groningen, Goudkantoor Replica of the Goudkantoor (Gold Office), which still stands on the Grote Markt in Groningen. Built in 1635, the Goudkantoor is an example of early 17th century architecture with a splendid facade in the style of the Dutch Renaissance. For many years the building was used as a tax office where gold and silver objects were weighed, inspected and given a hallmark. Nowadays, the Goudkantoor has been converted into a cafe-restaurant of the same name.
