Typology: hotel

"De Draak" in #BergenOpZoom (Noord-Brabant) is the oldest hotel in the Netherlands, dating before the 1397 city fire, with preserved 14th-century vaulted cellars. Rebuilt 1501-1517 with a late-gothic facade, it merged with "De Olifant". The stepped gable was replaced by a cornice in the early 19th century, lowered by a floor before 1870, and renovated in 1899. A 1627 facade by Jan Anthonij de Rouck blends late-gothic and early-renaissance styles. It features medieval beams and one of the Netherlands' first elevators.
