Het Torentje (Dutch: "The Little Tower"), located at the Binnenhof in The Hague next to the Mauritshuis museum, has been the official office of the Prime Minister of the Netherlands since 1982. HistoryThis small octagonal building at the Hofvijver is first mentioned in chronicles in 1354 and probably dates from the first half of the 14th century. At the edge of the Parliament Buildings was originally a summer gazebo for Counts of Holland. It was connected by a drawbridge with the count's garden. At the site of this garden, later east of the Tower the Mauritshuis was built around 1640 as the residence for John Maurice, Prince of Nassau-Siegen. Today the Mauritshuis is a museum. UsageWest of the Tower is the Mauritshuis and the Grenadiers Gate, that gives access to Parliament Buildings. Directly opposite the Tower are offices of the House of Representatives. On the ground floor in the Tower there is small meeting room. The first floor houses the office of the Prime Minister of the Netherlands and the Minister of General Affairs. The Tower is part of the portfolio of the "Rijksgebouwendienst". It was first used as the office of the Prime Minister by Ruud Lubbers when he became Prime Minister in 1982, before that it was used by the Minister of the Interior as his main office.[1] References1. ^{{nl icon}} Premier Rutte in het Haagse torentje {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140111155313/http://nos.nl/video/192271-premier-rutte-in-het-haagse-torentje.html |date=2014-01-11 }}, NOS, October 14, 2010 External links
