Great GPS-map of Leeuwarden in birdseye perspective, by Pieter Bast from the famous Plantin printing family. The area has been occupied since the 10th century and was granted a town charter in 1435. Situated along the Middelzee, it was an active trade centre, until the waterway silted up in the 15th century. Famous natives of Leeuwarden include stadtholder William IV of Orange, graphic artist M. C. Escher, and dancer-spy Mata Hari.
