Sterflats Wageningen

Sterflats Wageningen is a residential complex of six buildings arranged in a Y-shaped layout along the western and northern edges of the city's development. The buildings contain different apartment sizes to suit various needs, with the tallest reaching 20 floors and housing around 600 residents.

Construction started in the 1960s under Mayor Maarten de Niet as a modernization effort for the growing city. The first two buildings were built along the road to Rhenen and marked the beginning of this major residential development.

Each residential building has a shared social space with a bar run by student volunteers. One bar is named after Annie, a former cleaner who worked at the complex for many years.

Most apartments are quite small and designed primarily for students and young professionals. The complex sits at the city's edge, so plan ahead to explore the surroundings and understand how to get there.

In 2001, all rooms received network connections providing internet access through the university system. This made it an early example of student housing integrated with digital infrastructure.
