1. Schoolmeesterhuis / Schoolmaster’s House Marker
Gebouwd in 1907 als onderwijzerswoning voor de Hekmanschool. Architect: E.G. Wentink Jr. uit Utrecht. Een mooi voorbeeld van de sobere chaletstijl in Nederland van begin 20e eeuw. Originele kenmerken: Geel gemetselde ban- den, gestukt muurwerk, lichtkozijnen en raamluiken. Het dak kreeg rode Hol- landse pannen. Om het pand te kunnen bouwen was medewerking van het Ministerie van Defensie nodig. De dijk en de grond langs de Julianalaan waren onderdeel van de militaire sector en dus rijksgrondgebied. De dijk was deel van een inundatiekade. De Hekmanschool zelf werd in 1958 afgebroken voor nieuwbouw.
Gemeentelijk monument.
