Description: The 'Dinghuis' in Maastricht, The Netherlands. The building has been used for political and juridical purposes, and later used to be a theater. Currently, the bottom floor contains the Tourist Information Office. The name is derived from the Dutch word 'geding', which means 'lawsuit' and stems from the original use as a courtroom. So not to be confused with the Dutch word 'ding', which means 'thing', a common misconception.
