Zwolle

Sobre

Zwolle is a medieval marvel that sits at the convergence of four rivers. It distills the Dutch essence into one compact, walkable city. Dominated by the 15th-century Sassenpoort, a UNESCO-listed castle-like gate, Zwolle’s cobbled streets remind visitors of a long-gone era. Climb the Peperbus, a 75-meter tower with dizzying spiral stairs, for panoramic views, or lose yourself in Waanders in de Broeren, a breathtaking bookstore housed in a Gothic cathedral (complete with original pipe organ!). Art lovers can’t miss Museum de Fundatie, crowned by a surreal glass egg atop its neoclassical dome, showcasing everything from Old Masters to avant-garde installations. Just an hour from Amsterdam, Zwolle offers authentic Dutch charm without the crowds.
