The Tolkazerne in Bastion 6 was built as a Tolhuys in 1598. This was to replace a previous “Tolhuys”, which burned down in 1584.
The building was used to collect tolls from ships sailing past Gorinchem. Later, the Tolhuys was used as a barracks.
In 1425, the Counts of Holland established a toll in Gorinchem. For this purpose, a toll house was built on the west side of the city, where the Linge river flows into the Merwede. The building was part of the castle grounds of the Counts of Holland.
After two fires at the end of the 16th century, the building was modernised. Until 1795 it was used as a toll house, after which it was inhabited by a French general and after the French left it was taken into use as a barracks by the Ministry of War in 1814. In the 19th and 20th centuries the building had a varied use; military cholera hospital, civilian school for boys, main building of the position commander of the New Dutch Waterline, a public reading room, tax office and a police station. In 1977 it was transferred to the Vereniging Hendrick de Keyser Monumenten.
The building has a picturesque appearance due to the difference in building height, roof shapes and irregular floor plan and is a defining feature of the city silhouette both from the water and from the city. The main part of the complex is located on the Molenstraat. A large cross wing with an octagonal staircase tower was built on this. Both parts of the building were completed in 1598.
