Diplomatic mission of the Netherlands to the Holy See | |
---|---|
Address | Via Michele Mercati 6, Rome |
Ambassador | Annemieke Ruigrok |
The Kingdom of the Netherlands has had a diplomatic representation at the Holy See since 1944. Previously this was the case from 1814 to 1871 and from 1918 to 1925. Initially this was in the form of a legation, but this was converted to ambassador in 1967.
The diplomatic mission to the Holy See was a contested issue, which even led to the fall of the cabinet in 1925 after the Night of Kersten.
