Provenhuis van Wildeman, Charitable housing complex from 1714 on Oudegracht, Alkmaar, Netherlands.
The Provenhuis van Wildeman consists of four wings with gable roofs arranged around a central courtyard with stone decorative elements and sculptures.
Merchant Gerrit Wildeman established this residence in his 1702 will to provide housing for 24 impoverished elderly widows of different religious backgrounds.
The building reflects Dutch social care traditions through its architectural design, including a regents room above the entrance for administrative purposes.
Located at Oudegracht 45 in Alkmaar, the complex maintains its original function as residential units while preserving historical architectural features.
The facade features a sandstone statue of a wild man, referencing the founder's name, flanked by two female figures and decorative claw pieces.
