The name of the station is derived from the former Hollandsche IJzeren Spoorweg-Maatschappij (HIJSM) which was the first Dutch railway company.
Lacking the people to manage law enforcement around the station, Rijswijk ceded the land to the municipality of The Hague.
The railway station was named Holland Spoor, after the company which operated it, the Hollandsche IJzeren Spoorweg-Maatschappij.
[2][3] The current station building is one of three in the Netherlands with an active royal waiting room reserved for the Dutch monarchy.
International services: Den Haag Hollands Spoor also includes a bus station.
