History
The Mauritskazerne, located on the monumental World Food Center site in Ede, breathes history. Built at the beginning of the 20th century as part of the barracks complex, this imposing building served as the home base for countless soldiers for decades. The characteristic Neo-Renaissance architecture and robust details recall a time of discipline and camaraderie. Today, the barracks have been transformed from a military stronghold into an inspiring meeting place, where the authentic elements have been carefully preserved to form a unique backdrop for modern gatherings.
innovative food concept
A progressive food concept is central to the Mauritskazerne. As the premier event venue in the field of food, everything here revolves around the experience of taste, innovation, and health. Guests are taken on a culinary journey where transparency about the origin of ingredients is the standard. Whether it concerns a congress, a business lunch, or a large-scale dinner: the food tells a story.
Our concept breaks with traditional catering and delivers an interactive food experience that your guests will not soon forget. In a continuously changing world, we offer a culinary vision that stimulates, surprises, and inspires new insights.
During a gathering, the tasting experience takes center stage. Instead of standard buffets or dinners, we work with open kitchens where our chefs cook up a storm. Guests are invited to taste, ask questions, and discover the stories behind the ingredients. From innovative plant-based dishes to forgotten local delicacies: every bite is a journey of discovery.
Local & sustainable
Sustainability is not a buzzword at the Mauritskazerne, but the core of our business operations. We believe in the power of the region and therefore work closely with local farmers and suppliers from the immediate vicinity of Ede and the Veluwe. By choosing seasonal products, we limit our carbon footprint and stimulate the short supply chain. Our ambition in the field of circularity is reflected in everything: from minimizing food waste to using repurposed materials in our interior. Together, we contribute to a healthy future for people and the planet. Read more about our local farmers and suppliers on the Foodstories page.
