Latijnse School, Renaissance school building at Sint-Stevenskerkhof, Netherlands
The Latijnse School features apostle statues on its facade, with Latin inscriptions of the Ten Commandments between the ground and first floor.
Herman van Herengrave constructed this educational building in 1544 to replace an older structure that had served as both a school and parish house.
The structure represents early Renaissance architecture in the Netherlands while maintaining elements of late Gothic design in its architectural composition.
The building stands next to St. Stevens Church and can be accessed from the Grote Markt through Sint-Stevenspoort in central Nijmegen.
In 2016, robotic technology created new apostle statues for the facade using 3D scans of previous sculptures before artisans completed the final details.
