"Hier woonde en werkte de natuurkundige en Nobelprijswinnaar Pieter Zeeman, 1865-1943".
Pieter Zeeman, who in 1902 received the Nobel Prize for Physics, lived here from May 1901 until his death in October 1943. The house was next occupied by his son, after whose death in 1989 the physicist's notebooks, letters and other documents were found here (in considerable disarray); see
