The building at Rapenburgerstraat 103 has a rich history. It was built in 1862 as a Dutch-Israelite charity school and was remodelled in 1890 by architect G.B. Salm into a Dutch-Israelite religious school for girls, when the current façade was created. In the decades that followed, the building served various purposes, including a lingerie factory, a factory for work clothing and the mail-order department of a clothing shop. It later housed the Amsterdam branch of the Red Cross. Between 2007 and 2008 the building was thoroughly restored and internally converted into six apartments.
