Another eye-catching building is added to the skyline of Groningen's historic city centre. Forum Groningen, open since november 2019, was designed by Amsterdam-based NL Architects for the City of Groningen. It covers a surface area of 17,000 m2 on ten floors, is open seven days a week and hosts a diverse array of activities around one coherent ambition: explore the world, discover the future. Forum Groningen's ambition is to let today's world and tomorrow's opportunities inspire the residents and visitors of Groningen. It hopes to achieve this with international exhibitions, film and literature festivals, as well as courses, workshops and talks. Forum Groningen challenges the public to keep an open mind while exposing them to the latest social and technological developments. To this end, the Forum hosts exhibitions and has the interactive Storyworld museum, five cinemas, a multi-purpose events venue, the city library, study and work places, a Medialab and a Smartlab.
Cool building that you can enter free of charge. On the ground floor is a shop selling items for tourists. There seem to be activities organised for children and many people using it as a work space. Make sure you go to the roof top terrace for amazing views .

Goldberg Escape is een escape room in een zeecontainer. Na binnenkomst heb je een uur om te ontsnappen. Bijzonder aan deze escape room is met name dat er geen taal aan te pas komt. Door goed na te denken en samen te werken doorgrond je de toestellen in de zeecontainer en kun je ontsnappen!

Is there a better way to spend your time than in a cozy coffeehouse in the presence of a big furry feline friend? Definitely not! In our cafe you will find 10 lovely cats, living in the catcafe; a comfy cafe where you can relax and enjoy your coffee or tea with a cat by your side. Also the best place to get some lovely cakes, homemade lemonade, lunch or dinner, at only 1 minute away from the Grote Markt in the city center.
we came across the cat café in Groningen by accident, but we just had to pet those sweet fluffy friends in front of the window! I ordered homemade iced tea and nachos and it was delicious. There’s also a tiny cat merchandise shop in one of the corners which is absolutely adorable, I bought a pencil there! The cats were sweet and the people are kind! 10/10 recommendation
