    N.V. ARK'SSCHUITFABRIEK, built in 1931 by architect W.A. from The Hague. van Lensvelt (1887-1963). This architect has built several villas in Heerde and various existing buildings that have been adapted by him due to a changing function.

    The factory complex contains the following parts that fall under national protection:

    - MAIN BUILDING (monument number 520190) (consisting of office and reception space)
    - adjacent FACTORY HALL WITH SHED ROOFS (monument number 520195)
    - BUSINESS BUILDING (monument number 520191) (originally gas factory, nowadays raw materials storage and silo)
    - BUSINESS BUILDING (monument number 520192) (storage Technical Service)
    - Detached PORTER HOUSE (monument number 520193)

    The factory complex, with its elongated facade on the Zwolseweg, which forms the connection with the northern village of Wapenveld, as an exit road, to the north of the village center of Heerde. The buildings on the site are characterized by a remarkable, continuous, low-rise building, in which the two striking towers covered by a saddleback roof are the only vertical elements that attract attention above the flat-covered façade, which at first sight appears to be arranged completely symmetrically. Together with the porter's house (G), there is an impressive complex of factory (side) buildings.
