Our campus feels like a small academic village, with everything within walking distance. Classes take place in three distinct buildings; Franklin, Eleanor, and Anne, each named after the Roosevelts and each with a character of its own.

Franklin is our most iconic building. A former Gothic city hall, it’s a symbol of Middelburg and a space full of history and charm. It houses UCR’s administrative offices and the Burgerzaal, our largest meeting hall. From quirky staircases to hidden corners, Franklin invites exploration. Just outside Franklin, and at the heart of campus lies Helm Square, a lively meeting point where you’ll often see students talking between classes or heading to lunch.

Eleanor is the academic heart of UCR. This is where you’ll attend most of your classes and where you’ll find all faculty offices, close and approachable. It’s also home to our well-being space, with areas for yoga, meditation, or even a quick nap in a sleeping pod. Because learning thrives when you feel your best.

Anne is our most modern building. Purpose-built for today’s students, it features labs, flexible classrooms, open study spaces, and its own quiet garden. Whether you’re working on a group project or researching in a lab, Anne supports innovative learning in a calm and inspiring setting.

Each space reflects part of who we are: rooted in tradition, driven by ideas, and always evolving.
