Malieveld

The Malieveld is a vast, open grass field in the center of The Hague, easily identified by the wide, flat green expanse located directly opposite the central train station. While it serves as a public space for sports and relaxation, it is most widely known as the primary site for large-scale political demonstrations in the Netherlands. The field is protected by an act from fifteen seventy-five, which historically prohibited building on the land and ensured it remained an open space.
