Rolduc is among the top 100 UNESCO monuments in the Netherlands. Rolduc Abbey in Kerkrade, founded in 1104 by Ailbertus van Antoing, is one of the oldest and largest abbey complexes in the Netherlands. What began as a wooden chapel grew into an important religious and cultural center, later known for its major seminary and boarding school, and now houses a hotel and conference center. The abbey is known for its rich history, including early coal mining and Romanesque-Gothic architecture, and is a national monument.
