Description

The story goes that this house was built by Cathalina Helm and Thomas Haayen when one of their daughters was getting married. The purpose was to keep her close to their own home, which was located just two houses away to the left. The construction date, 1861, is displayed at the top of the left-side facade. At the rear of this two-story building, there is a remarkable feature—an aqueduct supported by stacked arches, connecting the main house to a separate two-story kitchen building with fireplaces on both floors. Additionally, there is a small cistern with a gabled roof.
