Cereol factory

The brick factory building along the Merwedekanaal features large windows, high ceilings, and restored exterior walls from its industrial past.

Built in 1908 as an oil and flaxseed cookie factory, the facility shifted production to soy processing in the 1950s until its closure in 2002.

The renovated factory now houses multiple community facilities, including a primary school, library, theater space, and meeting rooms for local organizations.

Located at Kanaalweg 91, the building welcomes visitors through several entrances and offers bicycle parking facilities near the main entrance.

A fire in 2008 destroyed the interior of the main building, yet the restoration preserved the original monumental facade while creating modern internal spaces.
