Dutch to English translations [PRO] Architecture / architecture | | Dutch term or phrase: in- en uitgezwenkte topgevels | Let op de eenvoudige ***in- en uitgezwenkte topgevels***, zoals te zien aan de panden nr. 11-15-16 en 37.
Is this describing façades that alternately recede or something?
TIA! |

Klauwstuk
Uit- en ingezwenkt zij- of vleugelstuk, gewoonlijk paarsgewijs ter weerszijden van de hals van een gevel of een dakkapel.
