Born and raised in Dordt here! Did not know you would move to our great city! Dordrecht is also historically significant: during the Spanish occupation, the city held a (secret) meeting in Dordrecht, called the Eerste Vrije Statenvergadering (first free state meeting). It was here, 1572, that the leaders of the then 7 provences declared their independence from Spain. This led to the Plakkaat van Verlatinghe, published in 1581. (Literal translation Declaration of Leaving). Large parts of this document were later, in 1776, copied into the American Declaration of Independence. So, not only was the modern Netherlands founded here, also the founding of the USA has some DORDRECHT history in its DNA!

Of you want to see the hall where this meeting was held: it is open to the public, look for het Augustijnenklooster (monastery) in Het Hof. There you will find the Statenzaal (State Hall).

Our city has so much more history to it. The Synod of Dordt which lead to the first Dutch translation of the Bible It used to be the place where the Dutch money used to be made at The Min (De Munt). It was the birthplace or residency of prominent historical sailors and painters. But those are just the historical tings. In todays word, the city doesn't feel over crowded like Amsterdam, The Hague, or Rotterdam. The vibe is 98% prositive, ofcourse there's some shit-starters anywhere you go. The city center has most of the major chains represented but also a thriving small business economy. It doesn't feel overly touristy even though there are plenty of tourists anually. Despite technically being an island, it's easy to get in and out of the city by any mode of transportation, except aviation. Also DUE to it technically being an island, the weather can be confusing. It has somewhat of an in-land island climate. Where the rivers are capable of holding back clouds but also trapping them. Meaning that it can be sunny in Dordrecht while it's overcast or rainy just on the other side of the island. But the inverse also happens quite frequently. Even though this is considered to be a myth, but ask any person from Dordrecht and they will confirm that this happens all the time. On many cloudy days around the city, if you look up, you can clearly see where the rivers run. Maybe it's just confirmation bias, but I've seen it thousands of times. Overall, as a 100% completely biased (born and raised) person. Dordrecht is trully one of the best, if not THE BEST city in the Netherlands.

Impressive. I lived thirty years of my life in Dordrecht (from when I was born there), so this has been a most welcome impression. I saw the house, near the big church, where my mother was born (Houttuinen 31) and where my grandfather owned a shipyard. He was a 'scheepstimmerman' and build and repaired wooden ships (tjalken) like I saw in one of the scenes. It really triggered emotional memories. As a boy I played on his wharf with the wooden leftovers, together with my 2 year older sister, every saturday. I also remember the 'hazelnootschuimgebak' van Brokking. A treat on every one of my birthday 's when still teaching at Da Vinci College in Dordrecht. The narrow street you showed is 'het Zakkendragersstraatje' and you are right: in earlier centuries workman carried big sacks from and to the ships using this street. You visited Dordrecht on a most perfect day. Thank you for this episode.

But that is for you to find out I guess. The Education museum and Dordrechts Museum are both worth a visit.

Hi, nice to see your new home town. In de harbour you can find the motorboat VB002, or De Vloggende Bestemming, owned by Kees (I saw it the background of one of your shots). He was a professional cameraman, but during COVID he decided to move on to a motorboat and start a YT channel. He does films on nice places in The Netherlands and other trips, sometimes together with his father, and always with his dog Chico. I think his videos could help you in learning Dutch and more about your new surroundings.

So you moved from Rotterdam (where I live) to Dordrecht (where I lived twice during the 90's). Have a great life there! My former house is on the Voorstraat, what claims to be the longest shopping street in the Netherlands. Our house was right under the monumental ancient landmark church. Can you imagine the first nights, when it bangs it church bells twelve times!? Eventually one gets used to it, but it was quite exceptional to have that huge alarm clock, bigger than the house we lived in. Dordrecht is quite nice. The inhabitants tend to be different to people from Rotterdam, nicknamed „sheep heads" since at times they can be pretty aloof. Dordrecht is close to Rotterdam but also the Belgian city Amsterdam. The train tracks connect Amsterdam to Brussels, the most busiest track of the Netherlands, the reason why the train tunnel in Rotterdam was built in the 90's. Seeing your video brings back memories....

Her family lived in a beautiful, very big, 1850's era house and because my grandparents hadn't moved after their kids moved out, I also have some fond memories of this mysterious place. Most vivid are the memories of the big attic with a swing set hanging from the beams and a shitload of old machinery and electronics. My grandpa died when I was 8 and my grandmother sold the house to live in an elderly home. Still in Dordrecht though, so we kept visiting the city for quite a few more years.

the mural wasn't a goat but a sheep , it's a reference to the nickname of people from Dordrecht , called Sheepsheads. there are several variaties to the story but this is the one in the archives. in the old days Dordrecht had a very heavy tax system for goods coming in to the city and people tied to evade it as much as they could. at one time some people bought a sheep and wanted to take it into the city without paying tax. they dressed up the sheep like a little boy and , walking on it's hind legs , dried to smuggle it into the city. the guards at the city gates had a dog with then that wasn't fooled by the disguise and the smugglers where caught. that was the basis of the nickname of the inhabitants of our great city.

Catholism for them was a individual religion, not a worldly power.
