Experience the heart of Philips' heritage.

This bold, character-filled building was once a bustling Philips factory and is now the spot for adventurous travelers wanting to experience Eindhoven like the locals.

Did you know that the Klokgebouw, designed by architect A. Broekert, has been an iconic place in Eindhoven since 1928? Originally built as a Philips factory, today it’s a vibrant hub full of creativity and innovation. Here, you'll find over 100 entrepreneurs from the creative industries, and there's plenty of room for events, performances, and exciting projects. From urban dance at PopEI to large festivals in the cultural halls – never a dull moment at the Klokgebouw!

In the heart of this historic building, you’ll find the Blue Collar Café, a lively meeting place where the industrial charm of the past is combined with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're stopping by for a great cup of coffee, a tasty lunch, or just to soak in the unique vibe, the café breathes the rich history of the Klokgebouw.

The same robust design, the same warm atmosphere.

Recently, the café has become part of Stayokay, but rest assured: the authentic look and lively spirit remain unchanged. A must-visit for anyone wanting to experience the soul of Eindhoven!

Fun fact

The café name "Blue Collar" is a nod to the workers of the Philips factory who once worked within these walls. Their 'blue collars' symbolized hard work and dedication.
