Step back in time with me as we walk the cobblestone streets of Middelburg, the capital of Zeeland, and once the second-most important city for the Dutch East India Company (VOC). From its medieval origins to its golden age of trade (and plunder), this Dutch city is a living museum.
In this walking tour, we dive deep into the layers of Middelburg’s history:
The Middelburg Abbey (Abdij): We walk along the walls of this stunning 12th-century complex, featuring the "Lange Jan" tower and the Cloisters, which served as the heart of religious and political life for centuries.
VOC Heritage: Middelburg was a powerhouse during the 17th century. We visit the historic warehouses and the VOC-Kamer Middelburg to discuss how the spice trade transformed this city into a global hub.
Medieval Roots: We look at the market square and the beautiful Gothic municipal building.
Hidden Gems: Beyond the main sites, we’ll see the narrow alleys and Gothic architecture that survived the centuries (and the bombings of WWII).
