Tweede Gemeentelijke Gasfabriek, Industrial heritage complex in The Hague, Netherlands.
The Tweede Gemeentelijke Gasfabriek features industrial buildings spread across 17 hectares, with two 53-meter gas holders constructed by Pletterij Enthoven.
Engineer Visser directed the construction of this gas production facility between 1905 and 1907, which operated until June 1967 when city gas production ceased.
The complex includes four memorial monuments installed in 2000, commemorating 34 municipal workers who lost their lives during World War II.
The industrial site, positioned near the Trekvlietplein, facilitated coal transportation through its proximity to Rotterdam harbor via the canal system.
The facility transformed residual gases from Shell refinery in Pernis into city gas during the 1950s before natural gas discovery at Slochteren changed operations.
