Willem Vroesenhuis

Description

Das Willem Vroesenhuis ist ein Altersheim in Gouda, gegründet von Willem Willemszoon Vroesen dem Alten im Jahr 1555. Das Haus befindet sich an der Ecke der Molenwerf und der Spieringstraat in der Goudser Altstadt.
Willem Vroesen beschloss 1555, sein Haus und sein Erbe für die Unterbringung alter armer Männer in der Stadt Gouda zur Verfügung zu stellen. Willem Vroesen gehörte zu der Gruppe angesehenen Bürger der Stadt, die wichtige Ämter innehatten. Eine seiner Enkelinnen, Adriana Vroesen, heiratete später den Goudser Bürgermeister Pieter Wouterszoon Crabeth, den Sohn des bekannten Glasmalers der St.-Janskirche Wouter Crabeth. Bereits 1537 stellte Willem Vroesen und seine Frau Machtelt Voppendochter einen beträchtlichen Geldbetrag zur Verfügung, um davon im Winter Brot an die Armen zu verteilen.
