Immerse yourself in the atmosphere that shaped a master, imagining the scenes he immortalized on canvas.
Nieuwe Kerk
Discover the Nieuwe Kerk (New Church), a towering testament to Delft's rich history and its enduring ties to the Dutch Royal Family. Despite its name, construction began in 1381. It's the final resting place of William of Orange, the 'Father of the Fatherland,' and has become the traditional burial site for members of the House of Orange-Nassau. Ascend its impressive tower for panoramic views of Delft and contemplate the centuries of royal history enshrined within its walls. Witnessing the royal crypt offers a unique glimpse into the lineage and legacy of Dutch royalty.

Its sleek design and integration with the surrounding cityscape exemplify Delft's commitment to progress while preserving its historical charm. Witness how contemporary architecture can redefine a city's identity and improve the lives of its residents.
Delftware Factories (e.g., Royal Delft)
Uncover the secrets of Delftware, the iconic blue-and-white pottery that put Delft on the global map. Inspired by Chinese porcelain in the 17th century, Delftware became a sought-after art form, celebrated for its intricate designs and craftsmanship. Visit the Royal Delft factory, the last remaining original Delftware factory from that era, to witness the creation process firsthand and explore the artistry that has captivated collectors and enthusiasts for centuries. Understand how Dutch ingenuity transformed a foreign influence into a uniquely Delft tradition.
