About the Honig Complex

In 1914 Honig took over a factory and build out the complex with several factories. In 2012 production ended and the former industrial area was developed into a creative hub with artists, sme's, pubs and festival/party locations, as part of a new urban development in western Nijmegen, called Waalfront (http://www.waalfrontnijmegen.nl/). It is also a rich archeological place, where the Roman city Ulpia Noviomagus was located, about 100 AC.

The entrance of the Meet-up location is indicated on this map of the complex:
