    Hiking

    The Amersfoort Wall Houses were built on the foundations of the first wall.

    When you walk through the Muurhuizen you feel like you are in the Middle Ages. When the city began to expand as a result of the economic boom in 1380, a new city wall had to be built. The old wall was demolished and from about 1500 houses were built with the material of the old wall along the line where the city wall had stood. Because the construction of these houses took place in different periods, a great diversity of shapes has emerged. vvvamersfoort.nl/nl/locations/1677/muurhuizen

    In this long, narrow street, there are houses that were built centuries ago from the remains of the first city walls.

    The Wall Houses is a more or less circular street on the site of the demolished first city wall in the center of the Dutch city Amersfoort. Two thirds of the circle of 1.3 km is called Muurhuizen
