The department of Den Helder was founded in 1822 and is therefore the oldest existing association of the naval city. For a century and a half it had a pioneering role in education and development. The utility kindergartens, household education, the utility savings bank, these were all initiatives from this local department.

In the heart of Willemsoord stands a must-see building: Den Helder City Hall. Housed in the historic mast shed, once part of the Royal Netherlands Navy, it is now an open and inspiring space for residents and visitors alike. As soon as you walk in, you're struck by the light, the space, and the wooden support structure. You sense the history, but also the renewed energy. Simply step inside. Exhibitions are often on display – from art and photography to local stories. The program is constantly changing, so there's always something new to discover. The architecture is also remarkable. Old elements have been preserved and combined with modern materials. Think of a steel facade, a three-story atrium, and workspaces with water views. What makes this building particularly appealing is its sustainable character. The mast shed and sailmaker's workshop have been thoroughly renovated for sustainability, with solar panels, smart installations, and a thermal energy storage system. The sailmaker's workshop is even energy-neutral. This is an example of how heritage and sustainability can go hand in hand. A place with character, substance, and an inviting program. Go there, take your time, and be surprised.
