"In Utrecht, the large sensational building on the Oudegracht was built around 1839, commissioned by Anton Sinkel. In addition to the building in Utrecht, there were other branches. Sinkel was one of many fabric merchants who came from Germany and sought refuge in the Netherlands.

This article focuses on the historical background of the property in Utrecht."
