Sint Jansbrug

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sint Jansbrug (lit. "Bridge of Saint John") is a student society in the city of Delft in the Netherlands, founded in 1947. As of 2005, it has roughly 650 members, and owns two buildings on the Oude Delft, a street in the centre of Delft. Both buildings are considered official monuments.

The society is considered more diverse and relaxed than most other student societies in Delft, while retaining its traditions and mores. It offers cheap student dinners for both members and non-members, as well as a coffee and tea cafe called Oele.

Oele is the coffee cafe on the top floor of Sint Jansbrug. On every weekday, both members and non-members can enjoy coffee/tea and free cookies. Every friday, Oele is transformed into a full-featured bar, serving all kinds of delicious beers and liquors.

Oele is run by eight second year student members of Sint Jansbrug. Every year a new group of students starts running the attic.
