Kop van Zuid

The Kop van Zuid is the area around the Binnenhaven, Entrepothaven, Rijnhaven, Spoorweghaven and the Wilhelminapier in South Rotterdam.

The Dynamic Face of Modern Rotterdam

The Kop van Zuid in Rotterdam, an impressive redeveloped area on former port sites, is a symbol of urban renewal and architectural splendor. The area, which stretches from the Binnenhaven to the Wilhelminapier, used to be a remote part of the city, separated by the Nieuwe Maas. Now it unites Rotterdam North and South with its mix of modern high-rises and historic buildings. The Wilhelminapier, a highlight of the Kop van Zuid, is known for its architectural masterpieces by world-famous architects such as Álvaro Siza, Renzo Piano and Rem Koolhaas.
