There are many beautiful cities in Holland. The Hanseatic cities in Holland are one of them. We visit five of them on this trip. Harderwijk, Elburg, Hasselt, Kampen and Deventer are today inland. However, they have lost none of their maritime charm. Discover the Hanseatic cities with this tour suggestion.
The Hanseatic city of Hasselt in the Netherlands is one of the five Hanseatic cities that we visit on our tour through the Hanseatic region. I was particularly excited about her. After all, it was the birthplace of Kilian van Rensselaer.
The Hanseatic city of Elburg is one of the towns in Holland that has retained its charm. If you enter the place behind the city wall, which has been almost completely preserved, you have the feeling that you are entering a different time.
The city of Deventer in Holland was a Hanseatic city. It is located on the IJssel, on which the Hanseatic merchants set out for the Hanseatic trading cities. They brought wealth to the city. You can see this in her to this day. Wealthy merchants built trading houses in the city center.
The best way to explore the Hanseatic city of Kampen in Holland is by boat on the IJssel. A visit to the shops in the pedestrian zone reveals something surprising. Tea or coffee samples give you an insight into today's retail trade. You can also watch cigar-makers at work.
