Noorder Sanatorium, Psychiatric hospital in Zuidlaren, Netherlands.

The Noorder Sanatorium features yellow stone construction with ultramarine blue tiled panels between windows and a central tower with four angled wings.

Built in 1935 by architect Egbert Reitsma, the facility expanded the psychiatric institution Dennenoord to accommodate patients without judicial declarations of mental illness.

The building contains a remarkable stained glass window designed by Jan Wijkmans, measuring 125 square meters in the tower section.

The facility spans 5000 square meters and includes separate wings that originally housed different categories of patients based on their conditions.

The surrounding garden, designed by Jan Vroom Jr, combines formal and landscape styles across seven hectares with a shallow pond limited to 70 centimeters depth.
