Abel Tasmanschool, Maritime school building in Delfzijl, Netherlands.

The three-story red brick structure features large rectangular windows with white frames, standing behind the former fortress moat at Abel Tasmanplein 4.

Established in 1856 as School for Industry and Maritime Affairs, the institution received this new building in 1930, designed by architect Cornelis Welleman.

The building exhibits Amsterdam School architectural elements with its expressionist design, varying heights, and characteristic brick patterns on the facade.

The structure now serves as office space for Amasus Shipping after extensive renovations completed in 2017, maintaining its maritime connection.

A memorial statue created by Anna Dekking-van Haeften stands at the building, commemorating students who perished during World War II.
