Veere

Picturesque port city in the Netherlands

Veere is a city with 22,000 inhabitants in the province of Zeeland in the southwest of the Netherlands. The town was founded in 1281 by Wolfert van Borssele and flourished especially in the 16th century when the area became a trading center for Scottish wool. Veere acted as the main port for Scotland between 1541 and 1799 and was also known as Campvere at the time. The Flemish architects Antonis Keldermans and Evert Spoorwater designed the Grote Kerk, the fortifications, the cistern and the town hall at that time. During this heyday, the cultural center was located in Sandenburgh Castle, the residence of the Van Borsele and Van Bourgondië families. Veere was a thriving trading town in the 17th and 18th centuries, with around 750 houses inside the city walls, compared to around 300 in 2013.

Attractions

Although Veere lost its ancestral rights in 1799, Scottish interest in the city persisted. No European city played a more important role in Scotland than Veere once did. The museum called De Schotse Huizen aan de Kaai commemorates the city’s heyday. The museum is spread over two dealers’ houses: Het Lammeken and De Struijs. It includes a Scottish room set up as a reception room and a Scottish governor’s office, like the one who once ruled Veere.

The town hall was built by the Keldermans family from Mechelen, who also built the administration building in Middelburg. It is crowned by a 16th century bell tower. The badly weathered facade pictures were replaced by new ones during the restoration from 1931 to 1934. The old pictures can now be seen in Museum De Schotse Huizen. The imposing Grote Kerk church is located on the southeast side of Veere. Completed in 1521, it has played many roles over the years: prayer house, military hospital, and poor house. Nowadays it is used as a cultural center.

A striking pink facade welcomes visitors to one of Veere’s most beautiful shops: Omas Snoepwinkel (Omas Candy Store). Here visitors can choose from over 100 types of traditional Dutch sweets. Many other shops in Veere are also open on Sundays.

Activities

In addition to a city tour through the picturesque cobblestone streets, a boat tour is also recommended. A narrow sandy beach invites you to relax and swim in summer.
