amsterdamhouses

In the past people had to pay taxes on the width of the houses. So they built narrow, high and deep houses. Are you planning a visit to Amsterdam?

jordaan 2

The Jordaan was built in the 17th C for the artisans and craft people with professions that made a lot of noise and pollution. They were not allowed to live along the main canals. Still nowadays the Jordaan is an area with many cafés, restaurants and art galleries.

amsterdam buildings 2

The Oude Kerk (Old church) was built on the spot where in the 13th C a wooden chapel had been erected. The church was consecrated at the beginning of the 14th C and was dedicated to St Nicolas, the patron saint of sailors. After the Alteratie (reformation) in 1578 the church became a protestant church and the name was changed. Nowadays the church is a centre for art and heritage.

halloween

Happy Halloween from Amsterdam! On the Singel in Amsterdam a man called Arie created this garden with 80 pumpkins. The giant pumpkin weighs 530 kgs (approx 1000 pounds) and it was grown in the Eastern part of the country. It took 6 neighbors to lift it! It will go to the elephants of the Artis Zoo later in November.

amsterdamstories

The Begijnhof is a hidden gem in the centre of the city. Dating back to the Middle Ages, a Begijnhof (Béguinage) was a courtyard (hofje) where catholic ladies lived. It was not a convent, the houses were private property and after the Alteration (reformation) in 1578 the ladies continued living there, but their church was transformed into a Presbyterian church, (the English church)and they could no longer openly worship. In 1671 a schuilkerk (hidden church) was created from two houses opposite the church (nowadays the Miracle church). On the Begijnhof you can also find one of two remaining wooden houses.

amsterdam bar

On a rainy day like today, there’s no better place to shelter than in a bruin café (brown bar) such as Café Hoppe. There has been a café here since 1670. The first cafés originated in the 17th C as coffeehouses (hence the name; café is french for coffee) other beverages were served in so called tapperijen or beer houses. Brown bars date back to the 19th C when housewives used their front rooms to serve beverages to clients in order to supplement the household income. This explains the cozy interior of the brown bars and the subtle illumination. The sand (sometimes sawdust) that you see on the floor used to protect the floorboards from discoloration due to the chewing tobacco the clients spat on the floor. It also worked as a kind of sanding paper on the wooden floorboards.

amsterdam canals

You can still find locks in the Amsterdam canals. They used to protect the city from flooding when the port was connected with the Zuiderzee( Southern Sea). The leaning house used to be the lock keeper’s house, nowadays it houses a bar called de de Sluyswacht.

windmills 2

Windmills of Amsterdam. The 17th C Binnendijkse Buitenvelderse polder owes its name to the location between the dikes of the rivers Amstel and Schinkel. The Rieker mill , a drainage mill on the Amsteldijk, originally stood in a different location near the Nieuwe meer.The mill was moved to its present spot in 1961, to be used by the water authority to drain excess water from the polder into the Amstel river, or to refresh the water in the polder.

The old church was built in the 14th C as a Catholic church dedicated to St Nicholas. Today, Dec 5 th, the Dutch celebrate St Nicholas Day. According to our tradition St Nicholas (Sinterklaas) comes with his assistants (they are all called Piet and have different tasks) from Spain on a steamboat🚢. They arrive in the middle of Nov. In the following weeks the Pieten will walk over the rooftops and listen down the chimneys to find out whether the children are well behaved. All well behaved children will receive gifts🎁 In those weeks before Dec 5th children can place their shoe under the chimney( or central heating😃) with a carrot for the horse of Sinterklaas. The next morning they will find a small gift or a chocolate letter( first letter of their name). In the past, children who misbehaved were taken by Piet in a burlap sack back to Spain🙃Sinterklaas has a big book with all the information about the behavior of the children. Tonight there will be a knock on the door and on the doorstep there will be a big basket full of presents🎁🎁🎁 We eat speculaas ( windmill cookies) and pepernoten (little spiced biscuits).
