Sunday morning at the Slaak Rotterdam

Welcome to The Slaak Rotterdam, where we have captured our two latest additions to the Luca family, the Luca in Navy and Caramel.

At just 500 metres from our shop and office is located the Slaak Rotterdam. Ten years ago, the historic building from 1954 where the Slaak hotel Rotterdam resides was declared a national monument.

A lot of history has been written at the place where The Slaak Rotterdam is now located. At this location two newspapers were published here: in 1920 the newspaper “Voorwaarts” and from 1945 “Het Vrije Volk”. The current building was built in the 1950s, designed by architect Jo Vegter, including a pressroom, (editorial) offices, a book shop and a travel agency. Later, the building served other functions such as a municipal office, exhibition space, but also as a squat and anti-squat building.

The Slaak Rotterdam and Restaurant & Bar Didot34 are therefore happy since 2019 to welcome everyone back to this authentic location to get together, to celebrate and to inspire.
