Bunkerhuis, Bunker house in The Hague, Netherlands.
The Bunkerhuis features a rectangular layout with brick and concrete construction, incorporating multiple levels across its structure at Ruychrocklaan 221.
Architect Romke de Vries constructed this residence in 1951 on the remains of a World War II bunker that functioned as a kitchen and shelter.
The building represents Dutch reconstruction period architecture and maintains its position in the Top 100 of Dutch monuments from 1940-1958.
The interior includes granite countertops, decorative woodwork in bedrooms, and a fireplace made of clean masonry, reflecting 1950s architectural elements.
Norwegian quartzite slate steps and Kunrader stone create dramatic level changes in the garden, integrating the former bunker structure into the landscape.
