Building H

Building H is a structure within the Radio Kootwijk complex that combines straight lines and solid walls in a modernist language. The building contains spaces for various technical functions and retains its original layout from the time it was built.

The building was created in the late 1920s as part of a center for radio transmissions across the country. It served as a key facility for broadcasting and telecommunications infrastructure during the 20th century.

The building reflects how the Dutch adopted new technologies for communication in the early radio era. Its design shows the practical thinking of engineers and architects who built for function first.

The building is part of a larger complex that you can reach by established roads from Apeldoorn. Plan time for a walk around the site, as the grounds are spread out and worth exploring at a relaxed pace.

The building was designed by Julius Luthmann and still displays its original construction features today. These details offer insight into how engineers in the 1920s thought about practical design and durability.
