Groningen is a city in The Netherlands with inhabitants and is the capital of Groningen. Since 1614 the city has its university: the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen'. The city Groningen was founded around 1100 and has a rich history, which can clearly be told from the old medieval buildings in the down town area. The current main building of the Academiegebouw (University) dates from 1901 and was designed by the State Master Builder, Vrijman. The façade is decorated with sandstone effigies of five mythical figures: Minerva, Scientia, Historia, Prudentia and Mathematica. The lecture hall (aula) exhibits stained-glass windows by Johan Dijkstra and murals by Wout Muller and Mathijs Röling.
