Veenhuizen, located in the Dutch province of Drenthe, is best known for its rich history that is strongly linked to the prison system. This unique village, previously a colony for beggars and orphans, is now part of the Colonies of Benevolence, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The local Prison Museum offers visitors a comprehensive look at the history of criminal law and detention in the Netherlands.
In terms of landscape, Veenhuizen is surrounded by a diversity of natural beauty. Bordering the extensive forests of the Fochterloërveen, it is an attractive destination for nature lovers and hikers. Two characteristic lakes, the Boksloot and the Molenveld, enrich the landscape, while a variety of characteristic buildings contribute to the cultural richness of the area.
