Town hall of Terneuzen, Brutalist government building in Terneuzen, Netherlands
The Town Hall of Terneuzen features geometric shapes and raw concrete elements, forming a stepped pyramid structure along the Westerschelde river bank.
Architect Jaap Bakema designed this municipal building, which opened in 1973 to represent the growth of Terneuzen after World War II.
The angular structure earned the nickname 'the battleship' from local residents due to its strong resemblance to a maritime vessel.
Citizens can access municipal services at Stadhuisplein 1, where the administrative offices operate during regular business hours for governmental procedures.
The building's concrete exterior and stepped design create distinct visual patterns that change throughout the day as sunlight moves across its surface.
