Where to stay in Het Dorp
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Arnhem is the booking, Het Dorp the address. Museum Arnhem sits on the district's list, which is reason enough to come out here for part of a day, and the TenneT Toren and De Peppel are filed under the same name. Rooms are the city's. Presikhaaf and Klarendal share the same municipal roll, so choosing between Arnhem's districts is choosing where to spend the day rather than where to sleep.

About Het Dorp
What are the main landmarks in Het Dorp?
Seven names sit under Het Dorp. Museum Arnhem is the plain draw, and the TenneT Toren the plain marker, but the list runs stranger than that: two of its entries are grounds holding remains rather than standing buildings, one at Kasteel Meinerswijk and one at the cloister recorded as Mariënborn or Mariendaal. De Peppel is listed too.
An address on the Utrechtseweg completes a set that mixes a museum, a tower, a ruin and a cloister site under one district name.
What is the history of Het Dorp?
The name is the oldest thing here: het dorp, the village, applied to a piece of Arnhem that the record does not date. Cloister remains at Mariënborn and castle remains at Kasteel Meinerswijk are both recorded as grounds rather than buildings, and neither carries a year in the entry. Nothing else is fixed. Provincie Gelderland and the Netherlands complete the address, and Arnhem keeps whatever archive exists for Het Dorp, as it does for Presikhaaf.
Where is Het Dorp?
Het Dorp sits on Arnhem's roll of districts in Provincie Gelderland, a name that means village, with Museum Arnhem and the TenneT Toren listed on it.
