Het Arresthuis

Het Arresthuis opened its doors in 1862 and served ad a jail. The jail had been abandoned for years, when it reopened in 2002 as an emergency facility for body stuffers. In popular speech, Het Arresthuis was also called "bolletjesbajes" which is freely translated as stuffer's prison. Mid 2007, the prison was shutdown permanently, after which the construction of Het Arresthuis commenced. Today, people can enjoy a care-free and casual stay here.
