De Olyphant, Historic brewery in Haarlem, Netherlands

The building features two identical stepped gables along the Spaarne, with natural stone blocks and decorative bands adorning the facades.

Following a fire in 1606, De Olyphant was reconstructed and operated as a brewery until 1688, when the property was split into two sections.

The mid-18th century renovation introduced marble fireplaces and wooden panels with stucco fields depicting the four seasons in the rear room.

The former brewery complex now houses offices and apartments, managed by the Vereniging Hendrick de Keyser organization since 1929.

The building displays stone carvings of elephants both along Wijdesteeg and in the courtyard of building number 23.
