Tolhuis, Custom house in Amsterdam-Noord, Netherlands.
The yellow brick building features a T-shaped floor plan with a two-story central section and single-story wings topped by pitched roofs.
Constructed in 1859 by architect Willem Springer, the Tolhuis replaced an earlier toll house from 1665 that collected fees from ferry passengers.
The surrounding Tolhuistuin garden became a popular entertainment venue in the 1870s with the addition of a playground, bandstand, and archery ranges.
Located at Buiksloterweg 7, the structure now functions as a dining establishment while maintaining its status as a protected national monument.
The building includes a 1989 addition of a wedding hall on the garden side, designed by architect Theo Bosch to preserve the street appearance.
