The Hague, known as "Den Haag" in Dutch, derives its name from the term "des Graven hage," which means "the Count's hedge" or "the Count's enclosure." This name references a hunting lodge established in the 13th century by the Count of Holland, located in a wooded area. Over time, the settlement that grew around this lodge became known as The Hague. Today, it serves as the seat of the Dutch government and the residence of the royal family.
