The fire brigade approached several vehicles to report from the premises on Beursplein.
Initially, only the first floor was vacated, but according to the spokeswoman it has now been decided to empty the entire building. The cause may be due to work.
A store employee says there are firefighters in the men’s fashion department on the first floor of the department store.
To be able to find the possible source of fire, the fire brigade has also deployed a ladder truck. The street and the surroundings of the building are closed off by the police.
