Building 85

Gebouw 85

Store

Built in 1905, national monument

Past
This was the store for the munitions assembly department (MSLW). Things like machine components, spraying moulds, and casting moulds were kept here. Because of its architectural style and the hens wandering about, this building was nicknamed the ‘big farm’ and the adjacent building the ‘little farm.’ It is built of brick with diagonal brickwork and ornamental masonry. The lifting beam above the big door on the top floor reveals its former function as a munitions store.

Present
Two businesses are currently based here.

Dofine supplies bespoke & basic frame finishes, wall finishes and wall art, as well as exclusive and innovative interior design.

Wonderwall Studios designs and produces wooden wall panels for every interior.

The wheels of the trolley are made of wood in connection with the risk of explosion. After all, friction from metal can cause sparks.

The Zaans Museum was founded in 1998 on the Zaanse Schans to guard and preserve the Zaan heritage.

The Hembrug Museum tells the story of the arms and ammunition factory that was located on the Hembrugterrein in Zaandam.

In 1697, the Russian Tsar Peter the Great stayed in this world-famous house in the center of Zaandam.
