history
The single-storey, plastered customs house was built in 1897 in the historicist era according to plans by the hydraulic engineer and architect Jacobus Johannes van Ronzelen as a service building for the customs collector at the oldest lock (1827) at the old port . The lock was closed in 1928 and filled in in 1933.
As a public service building, the simple customs house was given a representative facade with a cuboid, elaborate framing of windows and entrance door, a rich door crown with the year of construction and a roof designed as Swiss cottage architecture .
The building was also known as the lock keeper's house and is now used as a small restaurant.
