The square is named after the Schouwburg, the most important theater in Rotterdam. The square has an idiosyncratic architecture, the ground is about 30 cm higher than the surroundings. It was designed in the 90's. Four 35 m high light giraffes, which are intended to remind of cranes in the port, are eye-catchers. The floor covering made of wood, rubber and iron is also reminiscent of ship planks.
