Housing

Housing for migrant workers within the Hollands Kroon municipality

The Jewish Work Village deserves a future as a living monument. A monument that tells the story of the Jewish pioneers while accommodating the migrants of our own era.

The placement of the accomodations will evoke the original barracks of the Work Village, but that will be the only thing they have in common. The architecture will greatly differ from the style of the main buidling. The buildings will clearly be a new addition to the existing area. Together, the buidlings provide model facilities for the housing of migrant workers.
