Assen's main claim to fame is the motorcycle racing circuit, where on the last Saturday in June the Dutch TT is run.
Because of the central position of Assen and the fact that the government from what was then called 'de Landschap Drenthe' (the Landscape Drenthe) was searching for a location for the government and civil servants, Assen became seat for, and basically also capital of Drenthe.
