The Mart Stambank at its new location behind the town hall

This monumental, concrete bench stands on the footpath behind City Hall.

The original 1926 design by Purmerend architect Mart Stam, has been rescued from oblivion by Hans van Houwelingen. Stam made this bench in memory of GP Dr Maats. For more information, visit the Oneindig Noord-Holland or Wiseguys website.

Close to the Mart Stam bench you will find the Ellipsoid - Herman Makkink (1994): The ellipsoid made of fired clay depicts the world, the steel ring the city.
