Pavilion Minkema is a restaurant on the border of the Schoorlse dunes and the Hondsboss Zeewering.
In 1929, Ype Minkema began in Antoon Peeck's cafe as an independent castel (cafeholder). Instead of the cafe crumbled in 1932, Ype Minkema built a large hotel restaurant on the Heereweg in Camperduin.
By a bombing during the Second World War in 1942 this building was destroyed. In 1947, Ype and Gerben Minkema built an emergency restaurant, which disappeared in the waves in the 1953 water scarecrow night. In 1953, Gerben Minkema built a hotel restaurant in 1964.
An emergency restaurant was involved that was expanded and improved until 1970 again fatalizing the building and burning the building to the ground. Immediately after the fire in 1970, the construction of another café-restaurant was completely destroyed in November 1972. Storm and fire violence also caused this, but this time without victims. After reconstruction, a recovery was again realized.
The operator was then the catering industry entrepreneur Jaap Butter. In 2006, a live porpoise spilled on the beach at the pavilion. The brother of Butter, Sil, brought the animal, a female 1 meter 60 long and 60 kilo heavy to the place where he and his brother sat at three o'clock until employees of the dolphinarium in Harderwijk reached the animal .. The animal recovered well and was named after the winner, Sil.
In 2009, investment company Borgmeer Invest transferred to a sale after a financial conflict with the outsider, Jaap Butter. After a restart, a restaurant and café function was established under the name STRUIN.
