This building was originally built as the outpatient clinic of Leiden University Hospital, then it was known as Building № 5. In 1989 it became the building for the Social Sciences Faculty of Leiden University. After a while the Faculty decided to name the building after the 17th century freethinker Pieter de la Court, son of a Flemish immigrant, who became a wealthy cloth merchant. He also dabbled in politics, advocating republicanism and free trade. It was discovered that he owned shares in the West India Company, which was involved in slavery, so Pieter de la Court was cancelled. Now the building is called Agora, a market place in ancient Greece where slaves were traded. A lot of people just call it FSW, the Dutch acronym for Social Sciences Faculty. If you look carefully, you can see Pieter de la Court’s name on the wall.
