You can trace circular demolition at Prinsenhil in Breda, where a large hall was taken apart for reuse. Look along the Prinsenhil road. The place is the district, not a gate you should enter.
What you can do in Prinsenhil
- Read the February 2023 account before you go (WDP story)
- Look from public roads only. Do not enter a works compound
- If you renovate, ask whether beams, roof panels, clinker, or steel from this kind of job are still for sale
- Ask a local builder to keep the next concrete floor on site as a base or a site road
How to join
WDP and Gubbels ran this as a build project. In the February 2023 note the first phase was about 90 percent done, and a second taking-apart was planned for early 2024. Those dates are a record of the method, not an invitation to a live tour. Salvage was sold mainly to private renovators. Regular buyers saw the measured, photographed list first.
When & where
Prinsenhil, Breda, the Netherlands. The place is the Prinsenhil road in the Krogten area. There is no public counter with a street number. Recurring: there is no weekly open hour. Check the WDP page for any current note.
Why it matters in Prinsenhil
The concrete slab was reused on the site as a foundation and as a construction road. Cooling walls went to a cold-store dealer. Long steel went into new frames. Stone was planned for green walls along walking and training paths. That is the picture to copy on the next large hall in Breda.
Good to know
- Is the site open to visitors? No public open day is described. Stay on public ground.
- Who sells the parts? The demolition team. WDP said it barely handled resale. Check the WDP page for any current list.
