The inside story
Located in the heart of the city’s docks, Havenhuis – translating to ‘Port House’ in English – is considered one of Antwerp’s most iconic buildings. It was designed by the world-renowned architect, Zaha Hadid, and is a true masterpiece of modern architecture.
Havenhuis is an eye-catching combination of old and new. The building’s lower portion is a restored fire station from the early 20th century, while the upper section houses the headquarters of the Antwerp Port Authority. A giant glass and steel ship perches on top of the old building, its curved lines and glass facade reflecting the surrounding water and sky to create a captivating visual effect.
Visitors can take a guided tour of the building to learn more about its history and architecture. This includes a visit to the atrium with its dramatic staircase that seems to float in mid-air. If you’re pushed for time, Havenhuis is still a sight to behold from outside. Its unique design and location in the bustling port make it a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Antwerp.
