The main building of the former transmitter park, Building A, is a national monument. The Art Deco-style building, with sculptures by sculptor Hendrik van den Eijnde, is a mixture of the Berlin and Amsterdam Schools.
The radio station was housed in a reinforced concrete building designed by the architect of the Amsterdam school Julius Luthmann (1890-1973). For the design of the main building, Building A, the architect was inspired by the Telefunken broadcasting station in Nauen, Germany, and thanks to his interest in Egyptian mythology, also by a sphinx. The shape of this mythical creature can be recognized in it, especially from the air. The most famous nickname of the building is 'the Cathedral'.
