The former radio station Radio Kootwijk is a unique and monumental building. You really have to stop here to see the imposing building up close. Everything is special about this building: the history, style and location.

A surreal environment. In the middle of "Nothing" you will find the former radio station "Radio Kootwijk". This formerly served the communication of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to the Dutch colonies in East India (now Indonesia). Talks were conducted with the help of long-wave technology.

If you have the chance, you should definitely visit the building from the inside.
