Commelinstraat 16
Commelinstraat 16 was in use as a chewre or association synagogue from 1922 to 2014, after which the building was fully renovated as part of its change in use from synagogue to residential property. Several original features, like the wedge-shaped light openings in the front doors, were restored to their former glory during the renovation. The architectural style of the property, which benefits from extra-thick walls, keeps it wonderfully cool in the summer and pleasant in the winter.
