Het Ontvangershuis - The Receiver's House is one of the oldest residential houses in the Dutch city of Assen. The house at the Brink in Assen was originally one of the buildings of the Maria in Campis monastery. It may have been used as a priest's residence. The house has a 15th century cellar vault. From the 17th century it was in use by the receivers-general of Drenthe. It was restored between 1957 and 1959, after which it was put into use by the Drents Museum. Dutch The Netherlands
