Dear Stroomhuis Lovers,
As most of you have already heard, the fire flared up again last night, which led to the decision to partially demolish the building in order to fully extinguish the fire. We understand that this raises many questions.
Our community is shocked to see that the building is now largely being demolished. We share your pain, as this means that a significant portion of everything inside is now definitively lost. We would like to reiterate that we will not speculate about the cause, and we ask you to do the same.
We would like to express our gratitude to the fire department, the municipality, and other emergency organisations for their cooperation and support. We are particularly grateful to the municipality of Eindhoven for trying to strike a balance in this crisis between safety and the preservation of the cultural heritage, both of the building and everything that happens inside Stroomhuis. Even though it may not seem that way during the demolition, we know that a lot of work is happening behind the scenes to create a future perspective.
That’s why we ask you to keep sharing our GoFundMe.
