Title: Scheemda, straw-board factory 'de Toekomst 1'
Caption: Scheemda [prov. of Groningen] The former cooperative straw-board factory ruin in the village of Scheemda, in the eastern part of the province of Groningen. The factory was in operation from 1900-1968.
Name of the factories (there were two built after another) were 'de Toekomst 1' and 'de Toekomst 2'. 'Toekomst' meaning: future. Too bad they don't have one anymore. There are plans to at least restore 'Toekomst 2' as industrial heritage good. Photo by Bram van der Westen, summer 2005. Olympus 5000Z
