Inside Waanders

For me a trip to Zwolle includes a visit to Waanders; the modern bookstore inside the 15th century Broeren Church, aka 'Waanders in de Broeren'. (I posted a few photos of the interior before in March of this year, if you would like to see them you are of course very welcome to click on the label below this post.)
This is another image taken last Saturday.

Waanders once more

 Following up on yesterday's post, these are two more views from inside 'Waanders in de Broeren'. Here I am standing on the third floor on one side of the church and looking down to the other side. As you can see the view is very open. The Dutch words 'Willen weten' there on the white part mean 'Want to know'.

And the organ of the Broeren Church "watches over" the people in the bookstore.

Waanders bookstore

'Waanders in de Broeren' is a modern bookstore in the 15th century Broeren church in the city centre of Zwolle, offering books, lectures, expositions, and there's a cafe-restaurant as well.

Somehow the modern interior of Waanders with 3 floors on both sides fit very well with the (still present) historical character of the church, with an organ on one side and a stained-glass window to the other. I noticed a lot of people just standing and looking around, taking photos. A remarkable place!
