De Verkeerstoren - Nootdorp

Maybe you didn't know it yet but the Ypenberg district used to be a (military) airfield. It has since become a residential area, but there are certainly still many sights that recall this era. One special location is the old control tower. Not only because of the tower but certainly also because you can find a large number of historical elements inside. This, combined with delicious coffee, delicious ice cream and possibly a lunch, ensures that you really should put this on your list as a Pit stop during your cycle route!

A little history of the Traffic Tower:
For 27 years, the tower was not used. You used to find this tower in a large field, where air traffic controllers had a view of all the planes. Today, the roles have been reversed and passers-by can view the old tower. In 2015, Solid Build began restoring the tower. During this restoration, the existing installation was retained and extended in the same style. The beautiful details here are not to be missed.
