Ald Weishoes, Heritage building in central Venlo, Netherlands

The Ald Weishoes features a symmetrical facade with three stories, separated by natural stone cornices and decorated with stained glass windows.

Built in 1611 as a Latin school and transformed into an orphanage in 1925, the structure maintains its original front facade with curved gables.

The entrance displays Gothic architectural elements, including a relief of two angels and the IHS monogram, reflecting regional religious influences.

The building contains five community halls, a restaurant named Wielewel, twenty-two tiny hostel rooms, and eighteen student accommodations.

The central staircase features a stained glass lamp with cylinder-shaped pendants that illuminate the space without wall-mounted fixtures.
