Pierre Cuypers

The space was designed by the famous architect Pierre Cuypers, who designed the entire station. Fun fact: all stations near a royal palace have such a waiting room. You will hear all about it during a tour by the NS. The tour lasts 40 minutes and starts on platform 2b, at the royal doors of the waiting room. The guide will welcome you there. Bring your public transport chip card or bank card, and don't forget to check out afterwards.
