The government provides subsidies for private individuals to maintain or restore national monuments with a residential function. This encourages these unique homes to remain in good condition.

The scheme focuses on maintaining or restoring national monuments with a residential function. Eligible works for subsidy include, among others:

• General exterior painting
• Repair of window frames
• Roof repairs
• Maintenance and repair of gutters and rainwater drainage

Subsidies are applied for after the maintenance year using invoices that describe the work performed. If the application costs exceed €70,000, an inspection report must be prepared in advance.

The benefits and subsidy amount

The subsidy amounts to 38% of the eligible costs incurred in the previous year.

Important conditions

To be eligible for the residential monument scheme, the application must meet the following requirements:

• The national monument is owned by a private individual or homeowners’ association (VvE)
• Photos before and after the work
• Detailed invoices
