The local police station was based here until 2018. Today, the building houses a dental practice. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February 1963, the Municipality of Aalten purchased the land on the corner of Polstraat<\/a> and Bonifaciusstraat<\/a>, which at the time occupied a small farm<\/a> belonging to the widow Scholten. It is likely that the intention was already to demolish the farm and develop a new police station and a number of houses on the site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1965, the Aalten municipal council discussed the private sale of a section of the building plot, measuring 1,500 square metres, for the construction of a group and district office for the National Police (Rijkspolitie) in Aalten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was not until the early 1970s that the new police station was completed. The Aalten police remained at this location until 2018, when they moved to the K\u00f6stersbulte<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
