Itinerary
Stadhuis Gouda (City Hall) (Pass By)
Gouda's town hall is one of the oldest town halls in the Netherlands. The huge building from 1450 is located in the historic heart of the city. The town hall is prominently located on the market. The city council wanted a detached building, because the previous city hall had not withstood a major city fire. By the way, the appearance was very different in the 15th century, because the 'market' was then still a swampy peat area.
Gouda (Pass By)
In the winding streets of Gouda, where the Gouwe winds its way through the heart of the city, there is a history that goes back to the Middle Ages. Once a modest settlement on the riverbank, Gouda grew into a thriving trading city that would lend its name to one of the most famous cheeses in the world.

She transfers the monetary proceeds from her possessions to the Gouda Reformed Church. The money is intended for the purchase of suitable land and the construction of twelve houses with a communal bleaching field in the middle. A bleach field from that time was needed to bleach the sheets

N/A (Pass By)
This high, narrow house with its exceptionally beautiful rococo interior is known as 'Admiral's House'. It has a history that can be reconstructed as far back as the 14th century and has building and interior parts from the 17th and 18th centuries.
The name 'Admiral's House' refers to two naval heroes who once inhabited it: vice-admiral Jan de Haen (1630-1676), who fought in three English wars and, as successor to De Ruyter, was killed in the naval battle of Palermo and to the vice-admiral Roemer Vlacq (1712-1774).
Stadhuis Gouda (City Hall) (Pass By)
Gouda's town hall is one of the oldest town halls in the Netherlands. The huge building from 1450 is located in the historic heart of the city. The town hall is prominently located on the market. The city council wanted a detached building, because the previous city hall had not withstood a major city fire. By the way, the appearance was very different in the 15th century, because the 'market' was then still a swampy peat area. The natural stone town hall with its red shutters, carillon, statues and turrets looks strikingly similar to the town hall of Middelburg and has a Flemish appearance. This is thanks to the Keldermans architect family from Mechelen who worked on both buildings. The imposing town hall of Gouda is richly decorated and the facade in particular is impressive with its pinnacles (small tower-shaped decorations), the protruding corner turrets and the large square tower. The numerous images of the main players from Gouda's history complete the picture.
