The most photographed landmark in the city is the Peace Palace The Hague.
Between 1907 and 1913, the red brick palace was built in a Neo-Renaissance style. The construction was facilitated at the time by the American millionaire Andrew Carnegie with a large donation.
Several countries have contributed in the form of special design pieces.
Today the Peace Palace are housing the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration, The Hague Academy of International Law and the Peace Palace Library.
A tour of the Peace Palace must be reserved, but the Visitors Center shows an exhibition about the origin of the Peace Palace and an impressive introductory film.
