The Vrijthof, the most famous square in Maastricht. Partly due to the world famous concerts of André Rieu.

Vrijthof is a large urban square in the centre of Maastricht, Netherlands. The square developed from an ancient Roman and Frankish cemetery into a semi-private space that belonged to the Collegiate Church of Saint Servatius. In the 19th century it became the town's main square. It is surrounded by important heritage buildings, museums, a theatre and a range of hotels, restaurants and bars. The square is regularly used for public events.

In the heart of the city you will find the beautiful Vrijthof.
This special square is known as the setting for the summer concerts of André Rieu, the Preuvenemint and Magic Maastricht on the Vrijthof.
During the other (and largest) part of the year, the Vrijthof is free to walk across and view the special view.
Around the Vrijthof there are numerous historic buildings that recall the time when Maastricht was a religious center and a military fortress.
Think of the Saint Servatius Church, Saint John's Church, the Spanish Government, the Main Guard and the General House.
On the other hand, you will find countless cozy terraces and beautiful hotels that are busy all year round by visitors and residents of Maastricht. This romantic and historic square is the largest square in Maastricht.
