13 Sabang Straat
Posted: Wed August 16, 2006 11:04 PM UTC

Hi... this is going to sound strange... but my Mum lives in Australia now, but lived in Enschede when she was little... and I was wondering if 13 Sabang Straat still existed...That was where she lived till she was 11.
Does anyone know if there is still a house there?
Wierd question but I'm hopeful...

The Sabangstraat is still there and as far as I know all the original houses are still there too.

Map, see:

Maybe I can have a look when I visit Ensched at the end of the month.

Wow! I can't believe it is still there - Mum is 61 now - I thought it would have been replaced with new housing. Thanx so much for that!

I will send the photo to mum to see if it looks familiar.
And if you dropped by that way... A photo of 13 would be lovely!
She mentioned a Catholic School nearby... I didn't notice one on the map... Do you know if there is one still close by (walking distance for a child)?

Sorry to gush... it is just so exciting to find this info out!
Thanx so much.
