TP 56 In 1720, the Tichelaar brothers bought a house in Enzelens from 22-year-old Juffer Anna Tjass, who came from a family of administrators in Groningen. Her brother is mayor of Groningen, but her great-grandfather was a painter near Gieterveen. Anna lives right in the center of the city of Groningen in the Gelkingestraat. She remains unmarried and works as the operator of the family's peatlands near Gieterveen.

The Tichelaar brothers started a brick factory on this site in Enzelens, which continued to function until 1969. The stones from this factory are considered top quality.

Remains of the old Enzelens Brickworks. The brickworks dates back to 1868 and was one of 18 brickworks along the Damsterdiep canal. The factory was demolished at the end of 2021.
