Description
The Frisian stadtholders were obliged to attend the meetings of the States-General at the Binnenhof in The Hague. They spent therefore a large part of the year in The Hague.
They had their own palace, known as the 'Friese Hof' [Frisian Court]. This palace was located at the Lange Vijverberg avenue, overlooking the Binnenhof.
Albertine Agnes van Oranje-Nassau chose this palace in The Hague as her residence of choice. This allowed her to stay close to her relatives, the members of the House of Orange. She had her own courtiers. Three of her children were born in this palace.
