The architecture in Groningen is a world of contrasts. In addition to well preserved centuries-old houses, you'll also find many modern, state-of-the-art office buildings. Groningen's charming streets, more than 1500 in total, are another must-see during your visit. Our favourites would have to be the Hoge en Lage der Aa, Turfstraat, Willemstraat and the Zuiderpark. Each has its own character, history and charm.
