Replica of plaggenhut - a small half-underground house built by poor workers in the poorest parts of the Netherlands, especially peat lands. There the unwritten rule was that the new house could stay if it was built between sundown and sunrise and there was smoke coming out of the chimney in the morning. These particular houses are a kids' activity - how fast can they build the roof?
