The Zakkendragershuisje, meaning "house of shoulder-holders", is a small house made of wood and located in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Built in the late 19th century, this house is a symbol of the history of Rotterdam. The house is really small – only about two square meters – and has two lintels with the names of two men in the brickwork. It was assumed that these two men held roofs from falling, hence the name "shoulder-holders". Even though the house isn't open to the public, it's a unique sight that is worth seeing from the outside! Every summer, the house is brightly decorated with flowers, adding more character to its fairytale-like appearance. The beautiful, historic neighbourhood that surrounds it is the perfect place for exploring.
