De Grote Broek (English: The Big Trousers) is a legalised squat and self-managed social centre in central Nijmegen in the Netherlands.

The project consists of two separate housing co-operatives living above a cafe on one side and Extrapool and a music venue on the other.

The group demonstrated for the closure of the centre, which they termed "a violent breeding ground for extreme leftism".

[7] In the same time period there were also scuffles outside the Grote Broek between right wing supporters of Zwarte Piet celebrations and leftwingers who see it as racism.
