Bisschop Hamerhuis, National heritage building in Verlengde Groenestraat, Nijmegen, Netherlands.
The Bisschop Hamerhuis features a U-shaped structure with three wings, a pagoda-style tower, and red-tiled roofs with decorated gutters.
Built in 1923 by architect Charles Estourgie, the structure served as a study house for Scheutist missionaries following the establishment of Nijmegen Catholic University.
The central staircase contains stained glass windows by Van der Essen brothers commemorating Bishop Ferdinand Hamer, who died during missionary work in China.
The building currently functions as an educational facility for the Hogeschool van Arnhem en Nijmegen, providing spaces for academic activities.
The octagonal wooden cupola on the roof, designed to resemble a Chinese pagoda, symbolizes the missionary connection between the Netherlands and China.
