| Het Hallehuis is an urban intentional community located in Amersfoort, a city in the middle of the Netherlands. There are about forty residents living here in six groups. Each group is different and has its own distinctive character and style. The residents together are members of the Hallehuis residents association.
The community occupies purposefully built accommodation which is rented from a regional public-housing corporation called "de Alliantie."
Every community member has use of his or her own small apartment, usually a single room divided into a living and a sleeping area. Each of the six groups has use of its own communal kitchen and living areas. The whole community shares other resources and amenities, laundry room, and gardens. Hallehuis facilities are also used by local musicians and members of the Hallehuis choir.
Open day events are organised at least twice each year to provide people with an opportunity to meet with us and have a look around. Vacancies occur throughout the year and these are advertised in the national and local press as well as on this website.
The Hallehuis has a lively social life with events staged either in our meeting room ( De Deel), on our roof terrace, or in the garden.
Members of the Hallehuis are encouraged to take an active part in community life and join one of the large number of work groups which are responsible for organising events or which look after our communal facilities.
Our constitution provides for both consensual and representative democratic governance and decision-making. The Hallehuis constitution is not based on or informed by any particular religious, political, philosophical, or spiritual credo or dogma. |
