Highlights
The CC NL is accessible to researchers, students, museum colleagues and visitors with a specific question. “Unique in the world, in more ways than one, says Hoeben.” Nowhere else is such a large collection of museum objects from one owner, in this case the State, concentrated in one location. An acute lack of space at the participating institutions was the direct reason for the construction of the CC NL.
The depot is a heavy concrete bunker 24 meters high and consisting of four 5.5 meters high floors, supported by about a thousand piles of 24 meters long. The big advantage of this heavy construction is that weather and temperature have no influence on the indoor climate. Within the depots, covered with sand-lime brick – perfect insulation material –, there is a constant temperature of approximately 17 degrees and – more importantly – a stable air humidity.
