Welcome to Assen

Assen is a municipality and a city in the north eastern Netherlands, capital of the province of Drenthe.
Assen's main claim to fame is the motorcycle racing circuit, where on the last Saturday in June the Dutch TT is run.

Monastery

The monastery was built at what now is the Brink of Assen. At the locations of the monastery now stands the Drents Museum, which was built in 1882 as provincehouse. Only the Abdijkerk (Abbey church), monastery terrain and bits and pieces of walls remind us of the religious beginnings of the city.
