Berlage Lyceum, Educational Rijksmonument in Nieuwe Pijp, Netherlands
The Berlage Lyceum features multi-colored brickwork, curved rooftops, and decorative stone elements integrated into the Amsterdam School architectural design.
Built between 1919 and 1922, this educational structure served as a trade school during Amsterdam's period of expanding urbanization and social reforms.
Stone sculptures on the building's facade display representations of trade and industry, including fertility symbols that reflect early 20th-century values.
The building undergoes renovations until 2026 to create modern educational spaces while preserving original architectural elements and adding sustainable features.
The structure belongs to the Schoolgebouwencomplex PL Takstraat, named after a socialist journalist who established housing cooperatives for working-class citizens.
