The Pandhof van de Dom is the cloister garden of the Dom Church. Sandwiched between the Dom Church and the Academy Building, this hidden garden is a wonderfully idyllic spot full of flowers and herbs. The Pandhof is one of the most beautiful indoor gardens in the Netherlands and from here you have a wonderful view of the Dom tower and church.

History
The Dom Church's Pandhof dates from 1390-1440 and was restored in the late 19th century. The garden was recently redesigned. It is a monastery garden with medieval style elements. In the centre of the garden is a fountain with the statue of the writing 14th-century Cathedral Canon Hugo Wstinc. The garden is enclosed by a cloister from the 15th century.
