Kuyl's Fundatie, Historic almshouse in Kralingen, Netherlands.

The Kuyl's Fundatie consists of sixteen small houses arranged around a central courtyard with a main administrative building at 's-Gravenweg.

The foundation was established in 1814 by Anthonetta Kuyl to provide housing for sixteen impoverished single women and widows in Rotterdam.

The building maintains its traditional function as a women-only residence, reflecting the Dutch social welfare system of previous centuries.

Residents undergo a selection process including waiting lists and interviews, with current occupants ranging from 55 to 90 years old.

The complex relocated from Schiekade to 's-Gravenweg in 1972, where the original structure was dismantled and meticulously reconstructed.

Location: Rotterdam
