Schiedam's Old Town Hall is located on the Grote Markt. Built in 1538, it was rebuilt in 1606 after a fire in 1604, and given its current gables in 1637. The double staircase dates from 1717-1718. In 1782, it was modernized by then-city architect Rutger van Bol'es. The last meeting of the city council was held here in January 1973. One section of the town hall houses a restaurant, while the other is used for weddings, meetings, and other representative functions. Professor Pieter van Vollenhoven opened the restored Town Hall on October 22, 2004. The restoration took eighteen months and was made possible by a Kanjer grant from the National Heritage Agency. The restoration of the old town hall addressed both the interior and exterior. The paintwork, ceilings, and furnishings of various rooms have been renovated. The exterior facade and the turret have also been restored. A restaurant is located in the basement of the old town hall. The old town hall is also used as a wedding venue.

At 30.5 meters tall to the top of its roof, De Kameel Mill is no small feat. Yet, it looks modest compared to the other giant windmills Schiedam boasts. This is because this malt mill was (originally) built during the early years of the jenever industry in 1715. The demand for malt was not high at the time, so the mills, with their slender stature and smaller height, could suffice. Rebuilding De Kameel Mill De Kameel Mill officially opened in 2011. After years of preparation, the reconstruction of this mill began on Monday, November 10, 2008. De Kameel Mill stood near this square between 1715 and 1868 and was one of approximately 20 smock mills. These mills ground grain for Schiedam's then-large jenever industry. The mill is fully operational and has several public functions. Cave Another striking feature of De Kameel is the so-called cave. A semicircular passage allowed small ships to enter the mill for loading and unloading.

The Proveniershuis is a national monument in the centre of Schiedam, located at Overschiesestraat 1-3. The residents of a proveniershuis were called proveniers or boarders. Proveniers bought into a proveniershuis and then received lifelong board and lodging. Provenier means 'he who lives on preuves', where preuve means gift. The Proveniershuis in Schiedam is located on the Schiedamse Schie and was built between 1756 and 1761 to a design by city architect Arij van Bol'es. The Delft sculptor-plasterer Joseph Bollina was responsible for the facade.

The main branch of the Schiedam Library is located in the beautiful monumental Korenbeurs. The former merchants' exchange from 1792 was built under the direction of Jan Giudici, an Italian architect who lived in the Netherlands. The beautiful atrium with courtyard is especially worth a visit. The catering in the Korenbeurs is provided by Césant. Come and enjoy peace, a good book, information and advice, a delicious cup of coffee and of course something tasty!

Julianapark Main entrance Burg. Knappertlaan The Julianapark is the only park in Schiedam that is protected as a monument. Nowadays, its design is still very similar to the design that the municipal landscape architect J.K. Dominicus drew in 1914. The park was the first part that was constructed during the development of the new West district. The pond was an important part of the water management in the former polder area, which was reclaimed from 1907 onwards. Dominicus designed a park with curved paths in a landscaped design, combined with several formal avenues and sight lines, such as the access path from Burgemeester Knappertlaan. An artificial hill or belvedere was constructed in the centre of the park, from where there is a beautiful view of the park. The crowning dome is surrounded by a brick pergola. The colonnade with lime trees is also characteristic. There are more beautiful trees in the park, such as a beech and hornbeam, and the liberation tree planted in 1947. There are several monuments in the park, such as the Emmabank from 1935 and a liberation monument from 1949 by Pieter van Starreveld. Many older Schiedammers still remember the magical lighting of the Julianapark during the 'Holiday Festivities' in the fifties. This lighting was not easy, for example the eight kilometres of electricity cables had to be buried in lawns, flower beds and paths. The manager was therefore not initially enthusiastic. With Winterlicht in December the beautiful effect can be relived. NB. Fortunately this lighting was not always on. The adult male youth had secret meetings in the park at night with the young student nurses who stayed in the convent next to the park.

Those glass telephone booths are beautiful
