Look up Dutch BAG verblijfsobject IDs and monumental status.
Overview
Looks up Dutch BAG address identifiers and checks whether a property is a protected monument.
- What you can do
- Provides two tools for Dutch addresses. get_verblijfsobject_id converts a postal code plus house number, or a street address with city, into BAG verblijfsobject records, handling house letters and suffixes. get_monumental_status takes a 16-digit verblijfsobject ID and returns monumental status such as rijksmonument, rijksbeschermd stads- or dorpsgezicht, and municipal monument. It queries the Dutch BAG address registry and the national cultural heritage registry.
- When to use it
- Useful when an assistant needs to resolve Dutch addresses to official BAG identifiers or determine whether a building is a protected monument, for example in rent-point or housing valuation work. It is specific to the Netherlands and to these two lookups.
- Requirements
- Runs locally as a Python package via uvx (mcp-monumenten) or uv; requires Python 3.11 or later. No accounts, API keys, or environment variables are declared. Network access is needed to reach the Dutch BAG and heritage data sources.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Monumenten in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.
README
Monumenten MCP Server 🏛️
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to check monumental status of Dutch addresses relevant for woningwaardering (rent-point system). Connects to the Dutch BAG (Basisadministratie Adressen en Gebouwen) data and Ministry of Cultural Heritage (Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel Erfgoed) to identify national monuments, nationally protected cityscapes, and municipal monuments.
Built on the MCP Python SDK v2 (MCPServer). Tools return structured results; validation and lookup failures raise ToolError (is_error=true) so the model can retry.
Requires Python 3.11+.
[!NOTE] This MCP server is based on the monumenten package. For more information, see the monumenten package.
What This Does
This MCP server allows AI assistants to:
- 🏠 Find verblijfsobject IDs - Convert Dutch addresses to BAG identifiers (
verblijfsobject_id) - 🏛️ Check monumental status - Determine if a property is protected as cultural heritage
- 📍 Support flexible address input - Search by postal code + house number or full address
- 🔍 Handle address variations - Support house letters and suffixes (30A, 30-2, etc.)
Available Tools
Quick Setup
Add to your AI assistant's MCP configuration:
For local development:
Streamable HTTP (mcp-monumenten --http) listens on http://127.0.0.1:8000/mcp by default.
Claude Code plugin
Requires uv. Then:
Or add the server directly: claude mcp add monumenten -- uvx mcp-monumenten.
Usage Examples
Finding Monumental Status
"What is the monumental status of Coolsingel 30, Rotterdam?"
The AI will:
- Convert the address to a BAG verblijfsobject ID
- Check monument registries
- Report rijksmonument status, rijksbeschermd stads-/dorpsgezicht, or municipal monument designation
"Is 1234AB 30-2 a rijksmonument?"
The AI can handle:
- Postal code + house number format
- House number suffixes (30-2, 30A, etc.)
- Direct verblijfsobject ID lookups
Address Flexibility
The server handles Dutch address formats:
1234AB 30- Basic postal code + house number1234AB 30-2- With house number suffix1234AB 30A- With house letterCoolsingel 30, Rotterdam- Full street address
