Havenhuis, Port authority headquarters in Eilandje, Belgium
The Port House merges a historic fire station with a contemporary glass structure shaped like a ship's hull atop the original building.
Built in 1922 as a fire station by architect Emiel Van Averbeke, the building transformed into the Port Authority headquarters in 2016.
The building's diamond-like facade reflects Antwerp's maritime heritage and its status as a global diamond trade center.
Visitors can access the ground floor during weekdays from 8:00 to 18:00, with guided tours available through Experience Antwerp.
The structure spans 105 meters in length and features a panoramic elevator offering views of the Antwerp skyline and port activities.
