Discover The Hague's Queer Stories

Get to know the city in a new way as its queer stories come to life during this two-hour walking tour. Guides Oskar and Marieke each bring their own unique perspective to the walks. You will discover how The Hague, as an administrative center, played a crucial role in queer activism and emancipation, and learn how men in the eighteenth century sought sexual contact with each other in unexpected places throughout the city.

The stories are anchored in The Hague but often reach far beyond the city and the country. Your stories also have a place during the walk; as a participant, you'll have the opportunity to share your own experiences. Will you join us?
