The city centre is currently undergoing a major transformation. We are committed to a compact shopping centre, with a very varied range of shops for our own residents and for the large groups of tourists who visit the city annually. After you have shopped at one of the many shops, you can go to one of the restaurants for a snack and a drink. You can also use free Wi-Fi. Within walking distance you will find the old schipyuard Willemsoord with its various museums.
