“The village/town hall over the Vliet”

The Town Hall was built over the river Vliet in 1622 and was used as such until 1977. Unfortunately only exterior is to be admired these days. In the upper niche, the statue of blindfolded Lady Justice, with her attributes - scales in the left hand, a sword in the right hand made me think about the judgements, sentencing hold here centuries ago.

    Built over a river
    This old city or rather village hall dates from 1622. It is even older than Delft city hall! In similar Dutch Renaissance style, but more modest, the structure is robust and nicely located in central Oud-Beijerland. It is rarely open to visitors, but this will change in the near future as the municipality is planning to house a library and tourist office here.
