It is quite beautiful. Did they live there once as their primary residence? The art is stunning.

[@joostvisser5772]

Yeah. King William III, Queen Wilhelmina and Queen Juliana lived in it.

[@RoyalTVnl]

from the building period until the second world war, it was used as Summer Palace. So every year in spring until the hunting season the court travelled to here. In Winters, everyone and everything traveled back to the Hague, for the warmth of the city. Joost: Juliana lived here only in her youth.

@@RoyalTVnl I think I have some memory of a photo of Prince Philip and Prince Bernhardt at this palace back in their salad days. I recall they both worked on environmental issues even oh so long ago. Thanks.

It was not destroyed because it wasn't a military target. A lot was looted and damaged however.
