The building originally served as an office for the tax collector in the province of Groningen. It was then called the Collection House.
In 1814, a guarantee office for gold objects was established, which was officially called 'Goud- en Zilversmitkeurhuis' or 'Guarantee Office', but because these names were considered too long, the name 'Gold Office' was soon popularly adopted.

Nowadays it houses a restaurant.

I think it's one of the most beautiful buildings in the city, beautiful old Gothic.
There's now a restaurant in the building.
