The weighing-house
by OlafS
You could be in luck, I wasn't. Deventer's former weighing-house was completely in wraps in 2002. But restorations need to be made, and I still could see that the building is an attractive one. It's in a combination of Gothic and Renaissance styles. Of course one day I will have to go back to make a better picture. Not that I mind. The restoration should be completed by now and has re-opened as a historical museum, with expositions about Deventer in the Middle Ages and the history of the building itself.
De Drie Haringen
by OlafS
The Three Herrings is the lovely name of this building from 1575, the best example of early Mannerism in Deventer. It was built for one of many merchants in Deventer who sailed on Bergen (Norway) to buy fish.

Every year more then 100.000 people visit this festival.
My sister and I gave my parents the Charles Dickens weekend as a present for their 45 wedding anniversary last year.
They enjoyed it very much.
