De Muntzaal

Where the coin presses stood and the Dutch coins were minted, the Muntzaal now forms the heart of Munthuys. 

The Muntzaal in the Utrecht Muntgebouw was previously literally the heart of coin production. After the metals were melted in the melting house and rolled to the right thickness in the rolling hall, the metal discs (blanks) ended up in the coin hall. There stood the coin presses with which the Dutch coins were minted.

The largest hall of Munthuys accommodates 400 guests in plenary and is therefore the designated location for conferences, corporate parties, and large presentations.

The hall stands out due to its shed roofs, high ceilings, and the special daylight that it lets in. That light is not disturbing during meetings, but gives the space an open, bright character. Authentic elements from the original coin production have been preserved and are visibly present.
