Les Grands Moulins de Paris

The construction of the mill started in 1921. The architect applied a neo-flemish renaissance style. The mill was in use from 1928 untill 1989. The whole site contained facilities for every step of the flour-making process, from silo's ( build at the extremities of the original building in the 60's ) to washing the grains, grinding them and eventually selling the flour. In 2001 Les Grands Moulins de Paris entered the list of historical monuments...

Hof ter Zagen

In 1916 a rich farmer's family donated these buildings to the local nuns, who used them to accomodate less wealthy people. In 1924 the site expanded with another building to enlarge the capacity. The site got transferred in 1955 to the nuns of the nearest village. Not much later the nuns had to move out because the buildings no longer met the safety requirements. The site was still in use by an organisation untill 2009. Since then the site got abandoned, although there are still traces of homeless people living there...

Stockings Factory Du Parc

The factory was well-known for its production of stockings. Due to bankruptcy the factory had to close down in 2001. Since then the factory was frequently visited by thieves and homeless people. Some of the buildings have suffered a lot due to different fires.
At this moment the factory is being transformed into a sports complex.
