Tips from locals
Monumental Factory, listed as an Unesco World heritage site. Designed by Brinkman en van der Vlugt 1925-1931
Unesco world heritage. Real nice place to see. Take the watertaxi from Oostplein or Hotel New York!
Van Nelle (tobacco) wanted to have his factory next to the railway, not to transport tobacco but as advertisement: so people would know the brand. Now UNESCO world heritage and a venue for ART Rotterdam and other events. A guided tour is possible via city rotterdam tours. Ps the orange low building next to it is the city prison.
