Discover the Stokstraat Quarter

This district exudes everything the Limburg capital stands for: hospitality, style, tradition and atmosphere. You come here to find inspiration, stroll around and get to know the heart of the city. The Stokstraat Quarter consists of the streets between Maastricht city centre and Jeker Quarter, with the chic Stokstraat as the eye-catcher.

Rich history

Although Stokstraat is now considered one of the most luxurious and exclusive shopping streets in the Netherlands, it has also seen very different times. If there is one street that has undergone the necessary transformations, it is Stokstraat. The historic buildings in this and the other streets of the Stokstraat Quarter are cherished and well cared for. Look up at the beautiful facades in this part of Maastricht and discover how much history is hidden here. Or take a look at the square Op de Thermen where a bathhouse could be found in Roman times. The stones of the square show where that bathhouse stood.

Must-sees in the Stokstraat Quarter

Basilica of Our Lady

A visit to this basilica is part and parcel of being in the Stokstraat Quarter. Religious and non-religious visitors and residents alike often light a candle here. Once or as a regular ritual. The candles are reflected in a special way in the glass behind which Mary appears, which is a beautiful sight.
