amsterdamhouses 2

Since most of the houses are narrow, there isn’t much space for the staircases either, they are also narrow and steep. Which made it difficult to bring merchandise or furniture up to the higher floors. This is why the buildings have a hoist. Can you see the rope suspended from one of them?

Colorful bikes. When you are walking around Amsterdam, often you will encounter these colorful creations on bridges. They are made by Warren Gregory, also known as the Flowerbikeman. You can’t help but smile when you see them, which is exactly what the Flowerbikeman wants to achieve. In his words: “I sell smiles for free”.

remembranceday

The Royal Palace on Dam square. The building dates back to the middle of the 17th C, when it was built as the city hall by architect Jacob van Campen. It was originally built on 13659 wooden piles. Since the beginning of the 19th C it has been the Royal Palace, although the King doesn’t live there. Today, May 4th, the Dutch commemorate all, civilians and soldiers, who have been killed or murdered in the Kingdom of the Netherlands or anywhere else in the world in wars or during peacekeeping missions since the outbreak of the Second World War. The ceremony will take place on Dam square. Our King, Willem-Alexander will walk from the Royal Palace to the National Monument, and will place a wreath. At 8 pm the country will be silent for two minutes.

liberation day

Liberation Day. On May 5th the Dutch celebrate the end of the Second World War. The day before, Remembrance Day, wreaths have been placed at monuments, such as the Homomonument. This monument has been located since 1987 behind the Westerkerk. It consists of 3 pink granite triangles, that together shape a bigger triangle. The triangles symbolize the past, present and future. The monument is a place to commemorate all the people that have been, or still are, persecuted or murdered because of their sexual orientation or identity. During the Second World War, in the Nazi concentration camps, the pink triangle identified the homosexual prisoners. Since the seventies the triangle has become the symbol against oppression and exclusion of the LGTBI+ community.

kingsday

Happy King’s Day! April 27th 1967 is the birthday of His Royal Highness Willem-Alexander Claus Georg Ferdinand van Oranje Nassau, since 2013 the King of the Netherlands. The Dutch usually celebrate this day with a “vrijmarkt” (a chance to sell second hand goods without having to pay taxes, imagine a giant yard sale) where even the children show their entrepreneurial skills. You’ll see lots of people wearing orange clothing in honor of the royal family(oranje means orange).

history

In the 17th C warehouses in Amsterdam were used to store merchandise brought back by the Dutch East India Company, such as pepper, cloves, mace, nutmeg, cinnamon. Until the time of Napoleon, houses didn’t have numbers, they had names, these storehouses were called the spoonbill.

the amsterdam flag

The Amsterdam flag, based on the coat of arms of the city, consists of two red lines with a black line in the middle. Often, a line represents a river. In this case the Amstel river. On the black line there are three St. Andrew’s crosses. The crosses used to be part of the coat of arms of an important landowner in the 13th C called Persijn. It is said that the 3 crosses stood for the dangers in the past: water, fire and the plague. The coat of Amsterdam can be found on many historical buildings in the city.

windmills

In the 17th C there were more than 10000 windmills in the Netherlands. They were used for drainage and industrial purposes: saw mills, oil mills, paper mills etc. Nowadays there are still over a thousand windmills. About 25% still function, the rest have been converted into restaurants or houses, like this mill on the outskirts of Weesp.

amsterdam bike tour

With over 22.9 million bicycles in the Netherlands, there are more bicycles than inhabitants. The Dutch have on average 1.3 bicycles per person (in the USA 0.3). Most of the country is flat and there are 37,000 km (almost 23,000 miles) of bike paths, which makes it a good destination for bicycle tours. In 2019 the Dutch travelled a whopping 17.6 billion km (almost 11 billion miles) by bike, 25% of all traffic movement is done by bicycle. Join me on a biketour! Info in the bio.

amsterdam castle

Muiderslot, also known as ‘Amsterdam castle’, is located in Muiden, at the mouth of the river Vecht. The castle dates back to the 13th century. It was built on a strategic point to enforce toll on traders travelling on the Vecht. In 1296 count Floris V was imprisoned in the castle, when he tried to escape he was killed by the noblemen that had conspired against him. In the 17th century, for 39 years, the poet PC Hooft was the bailiff for the Gooi area. He used to spend his summers at the Muiderslot. He invited fellow poets, writers and scholars for visits. The group became known as the Muiderkring. Nowadays the castle is a national museum.

amsterdam parks

Distillery ‘t Nieuwe Diep. In 1632 the Oetewaler mill was built on this spot to drain the water of the Overamstelsche polder into a little lake called het Nieuwe Diep. In 1880 the mill was replaced by a steam pumping station that operated till 1984. Since 1928 the area is part of the Flevopark. The building nowadays houses a distillery and tasting room and is a popular spot on a sunny day.

street markets

You can find markets in many neighborhoods of Amsterdam. Some of them are there on every weekday and on Saturday. Others, like the Noordermarkt on Saturdays and Mondays. There has been a market at the foot of the Noorderkerk since 1623. It started out as a market for pots and earthenware, later rags, pigeons, hats and straw were also sold. Since 1987 the Noordermarkt became a farmers market on Saturdays. On Monday morning you can find a lot of vintage clothes there and on the nearby Lindengracht there is a fabric market. On both days you can also find antiques, curiosities, glass ware and artwork. Don’t forget to taste the famous apple pie at Winkel 43, you’ll see people line up for this treat!

biketour

The Western islands. At the beginning of the 17th century 3 islands were created on the West side of Amsterdam; the front island, middle island and aft island. Today they are known as the Bickerseiland, Prinseneiland and Realeneiland. They used to house the wharfs and storehouses of the Dutch West India Company, and in the 18th century salt stores, fish smokehouses and tanneries. Nowadays it is a nice residential area with hidden gardens.

herengracht

The oldest house on Herengracht. At the beginning of the 17th century the city of Amsterdam was expanded by digging the famous canal belt. A small canal that had been dug in 1585 was enlarged in 1612 and given the name Herengracht( gentlemen’s canal). The house with the green shutters was built in 1590 and is now the oldest residence on the canal.

zuiderkerk

The Zuiderkerk(southern-church). This church was the first church to be built at the beginning of the 17th century especially for protestant worship. The architect was Hendrick de Keijser. After the ‘Alteration’ of 1578 when the catholic government of the city was replaced by a protestant government the catholic churches were converted into places of worship for the protestants. Catholics were no longer allowed to openly worship at the time, instead they used ‘schuilkerken’ , hidden churches.

houseboats

Already in the 17th century there were houseboats in Amsterdam. They belonged to foreign traders in glass-and earthenware who sold their merchandise illegally. In the 19th century there were ships all over the city, they were used as housing for the laborers.The wooden barges were replaced by steel barges. In the 1920’s the number of houseboats increased from 85 to over 1100 due to housing shortage. After the Second World War the number increased once more, especially in the sixties and seventies, the Hippie era. Nowadays there are over 2500 houseboats in Amsterdam.

dutch street food

Amsterdam street food. At many locations in the city you can find these fish carts. They sell, amongst other things, the famous Dutch herring. In the 14th century a man called Willem Beukelsz thought up a way to keep the fish longer fresh, the gutting or gibbing of the herring. This enabled the fishermen to stay longer at sea. The fish was salted ( and nowadays frozen) and then matured slowly. So we eat them raw, with chopped onions and/or pickles. During the months of June, July and August you can find the Hollandse nieuwe, a herring that has at a fat percentage of at least 16% and is gutted, salted and filleted in the traditional Dutch way.

dutch traditions

Only a few times a year you will find the Dutch red white and blue flag attached to private homes: on April 27th, King’s day, with an extra orange ribbon in honor of the House of Oranje(orange). On May 4th, Remembrance Day (half mast), on May 5th, Liberation Day. And in the months of June and July the flag might appear on some houses with a backpack attached: it means that an adolescent in the home graduated, and no longer needs the study books!

leaning houses

Many houses in the city centre are leaning, like this group of houses on the Amstel. The city lies beneath the sea level, and the ground is very soft. Before we can build houses, we need to lay a foundation of piles. There are around 60 piles beneath a house, with a lenght between 12-20 meters. At a depht of 12 meters and again 20 meters there are sand layers. The piles are driven into the soil till they rest on the sand. In the past wooden piles were used, the city rests on 11 million piles. As long as those piles remained under water, they were like stone, but if the groundwater level changed, the piles started to rot. Hence the leaning.

magere brug

The Magere Brug (Skinny bridge). Originally at the end of the 17th century a broad monumental stone bridge was planned on this spot. Due to economic setbacks the plan was changed, and a more modest and narrow bridge was built, hence the name skinny bridge.

amsterdam stories

The Montelbaanstoren is an old defense tower on the East side of the old town dating back to the 16th century. The white upper part was added in the 17th century. In the 16th century watchmen used the tower to check for fires in the city, especially on the shipyards. If the alarm was sounded the people from the neighborhood had to form a human chain and pass the bucket to help extinguish the fire. In the 17th century Jan van der Heijden invented the first firehose.

amsterdam architecture

The Amsterdam opera house stands on an artificial island called Vlooienburg that was created in the bend of the Amstel around 1608. The quays of the island were used for wood storage and the island housed from the middle of the 17th century several orphanages. It was part of the Jewish quarter. After WW II the buildings in the area were in a bad shape, and were demolished to create space for a new city hall designed by the Austrian architect Wilhelm Holzbauer. After many years of protests it was decided to combine the city hall with a new music hall( opera & ballet) designed by the Dutch architect Cees Dam.

walkingtour amsterdam

In the former Binnendijksche Buitenveldersche Polder, an area between the Amstel river and the Boerenwetering which had been used for agriculture and recreation, at the end of the 19th Century a new part of the city was developed. As the population started to increase after 1850 an urban development was designed by city architect van Niftrik and later by Kalff. The area was given the name district YY but was soon known as the Pijp, after the narrow drainage canals that were once part of the polder. One of these canals, the Zaagmolen sloot(sawmill canal) was filled in with sand and is now known as Albert Cuyp straat, where from Monday till Saturday you can find the market with the same name. The Pijp used to be a typical working class area, with narrow streets and small houses. Often several families shared an apartment and even single rooms were rented out to families. Living conditions weren’t great. At the beginning there was no running water or a sewerage system. There were communal bathing houses. In the past 15 years the area has become a popular part of the city, with many bars and restaurants. Many inhabitants have created little gardens on their facades. It’s a great area for a stroll.

Amsterdam almshouses are hidden gems. They were built by wealthy citizens for former workers or for widows and orphans. This one, the ‘Raepenhofje’ , is one of the oldest and most authentic courtyards, built in 1648 by Pieter Adriaensz. Raep, who was the treasurer of the city.

The St. Nicholas church is the 3rd church in Amsterdam dedicated to the patron saint of sailors. The first church, built at the beginning of the 14th C, was converted into a calvinist church after the Alteration of 1578 and is now known as the Old church. When in the 17th and 18th C it wasn’t possible for catholics to openly worship, a canal house belonging to a rich merchant was used as a ‘schuilkerk’ or hidden church. The building still exists and now houses the Onze lieve heer op solder (our Lord in the attic) museum. The church you see on this photo was built at the end of the 19th C in neo-baroque style.

amsterdam stories 2

Schreierstoren. The Schreierstoren used to be part of the 15th Century city wall. It’s name is derived from Schrayershouck, meaning a sharp corner or angle. But the Dutch word schreien also means to cry. So we call it the tower of tears or the weeping tower because this was the place where the wives said good bye to the sailors when they left.

Is this Amsterdam? Yes, it’s the He Hua 荷華寺 (Lotus flower) buddhist temple on the Zeedijk(善德街) . This temple (the largest religious building in Chinese style in Europe, was built in the year 2000. Amsterdam’s Chinatown originated in 1911, which makes it the oldest Chinatown on the European mainland.

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.

amsterdam houses

In the past, people were taxed on the width of the house, so they built narrow, high and deep houses. Since there was not a lot of room for the stairs, they also were narrow and very steep. This made it difficult to get merchandise up to the higher floors. That’s why the houses have the hoisting beam at the top of the façade, they were used to bring up the merchandise, and furniture to the top floors.

The Waag (weigh house) used to be an entrance gate in the 15th C city wall, called St. Anthony’s gate. When the city expanded beyond the wall at the end of the 16th C, the wall was demolished and the gate became the weigh house. The building housed several guilds, such as the painter’s guild, the mason’s guild and the surgeon’s guild in the 17th C. Anatomical lessons took place in the building, like the one depicted by Rembrandt: the Anatomical lesson of Dr. Tulp. For these lessons, that took place during the winter months due to lack of refrigeration, the bodies of convicted criminals were used. At the beginning of the 19th C the building stopped being used as a weigh house. It then had many different purposes and housed for a while the Jewish historical museum. Nowadays there are the offices of the Waag society and there is a restaurant.

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.

dutch traditions 5

Pea soup! On a foggy and grey day like today you need this typical Dutch soup. My grandmother used to make the best pea soup. The ingredients are ribs for the stock(or for a vegetarian version use a vegetable stock) which you brown in a pan, add water and a bayleaf and split peas and simmer for an hour. In the mean time dice onion, carrot, leek, celeriac and a couple of celery stalks. Remove the ribs and bayleaf from the pot, take the meat off the ribs and put it back in the pot together with the diced vegetables and let it simmer for another 20 mins, stirring occasionally and maybe add some more water. Season with salt and pepper and put in a smoked sausage. Serve with rye bread and smoked bacon. Enjoy!

amsterdamstories 3

Facade stones. Until the time of Napoleon, houses didn’t have numbers, they had names. The names were in the shape of a facade stone or written on the shutters. It could be a fantasy name, the coat of arms of the person living in the house or their profession.

amsterdamstories 4

Until the 1500’s all the houses in Amsterdam were wooden houses. Due to fire hazard, that was no longer allowed; people had to start building stone houses. Since our country is very flat, there was not a lot of natural stone, so this had to be imported. We do have a lot of lakes and rivers, and therefor clay, we used the clay to make bricks, which became the main building material. There are only a few wooden buildings left, like this one at the Begijnhof.

At the end of the 15th C the city was surrounded by a brick wall. There were entrance gates, defense towers and a canal, the Singel gracht. This is the Schreierstoren. The name is derived from Schreyhoeckstoren, meaning the sharp angle of the tower. However the Dutch word schreien also means to cry, so we call it the tower of tears or the weeping tower. From this tower the wives of the sailors waved good bye to their husbands when they set sail. One of the people leaving from the tower was Henry Hudson, there is a plaque.

The Westerkerk was built at the beginning of the 17th C by Hendrick de Keijser. On the clock tower you can make out a rooster, the symbol for Calvinist churches. Also on top of the tower there’s a crown. This crown is part of the coat of arms of Amsterdam, which you can see below the clock.

Former Lutheran church on Singel. The church was built in the 17th C. At the time only Calvinist churches could have a bell tower. But by adding the little lantern, the church had a mini tower.
