Monumentenbezit conducts research to increase knowledge of its monuments. We do this for specific issues, as well as in the preparation and during the implementation of our projects. It is important for us to share the knowledge we have gained, including by writing publications in our annual reports, books and other external media. We are also happy to share them with you below.
Questions about a research or publication on one of the monuments? If so, please contact us!
