The Bishopric ’s scale is comparable with the province border of Limburg. Around 1860 bishop Paredis got his seat in a new bishop’s palace in the former Oliestraat. The square shape of the existing building, used as a farm, has been preserved. The courtyard was covered in the seventies. The exterior at the street side was restored thoroughly between 1930-1935 and got its final front by architect Caspar Franssen.

As the bishop's hierarchy was restored in 1853, Roermond has been giving back its bishop's seat.
