De Vijf Werelddelen, Heritage warehouse building at Handelsplein, Rotterdam, Netherlands
The rectangular structure features red brick walls with natural stone elements, supported by over 8000 wooden piles and cast iron columns.
Built between 1875 and 1879, this warehouse designed by G.J. Morre and Co served as a tax-free storage facility for transit goods.
The building contains five storage sections named after continents: Africa, Europe, America, Asia, and Australia, representing global trade connections.
The ground floor houses restaurants, supermarkets, and shops, while the first floor maintains its original loading balcony with 38 cast-iron columns.
The structure includes its dedicated harbor, the Entrepothaven, with a 10-meter wide gallery featuring iron rails for portal cranes.
