It houses the meeting place of both houses of the States General of the Netherlands, as well as the Ministry of General Affairs and the office of the prime minister of the Netherlands. Built primarily in the 13th century, the Gothic castle originally functioned as residence of the counts of Holland and became the political centre of the Dutch Republic in 1584. Together with the Buitenhof it is ranked among the Top 100 Dutch heritage sites. The Binnenhof is the oldest parliament building in the world still in use.
