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.

People connecting this server to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.
