In the center of Delft, within walking distance of the station and the Markt, lies the former convent and hospital building “De Zuster”. This characterful business center offers flexible workspaces specially designed for starting entrepreneurs. The building is therefore primarily intended for start-up creative/innovative companies.
“De Zuster” has recently been fully upgraded for sustainability, from energy label G to A, while preserving the protected townscape. Large-scale maintenance was also carried out during this sustainability upgrade, meaning the building is now in excellent condition. The building is characterized by high corridors, large window sections and several balconies on the upper floors.
