John Basso Posted September 10, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 10, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello Everybody. I visited this medieval town in 2011.Its one of the oldest towns in Holland and its great for tourist's .About 300AD a Germanic settlement was the first permanent on a complex of low river dunes. Many of those type of settlements where abandoned ,but Zutphen stayed because it was on a strategic crosspoint of the river: IJssel & Berkel.It further developed under Charlemagne's Francia.A big defensive wall was build around the city ,to protect against the viking attacks.

war Posted September 11, 2016 Share #2 Posted September 11, 2016 Nice Image. Distinctively Dutch. A history of lots of alterations to the facade over that many years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
