See, experience and meet on foot

The route was created by Ed Walraven to show everyone the particularities of the Stadshart with the slogan "become more familiar and connected with our Stadshart, but also to:

  • meeting in the city centre is a relaxed way of meeting/meeting ......
  • enlivening the city centre through shared environment and sociability
  • ..... and making you feel (more) at home

This walking route in this dynamic centre is and will continue to be constantly evolving due to new art displays, new buildings and renovations, among other things. Things are also changing by incorporating the impressions and experiences of each resident and visitor after each stand walk.

About Ed Walraven

As urban designer with the Rijksdienst voor de IJsselmeerpolders, Ed Walraven was involved in the development of the city centre zone and, within this, emphatically with the city heart in the period from late 1976 to late 1979. He set his heart on this piece of new city centre, unique in the Netherlands. This involvement together with his passion for art and reflective photography led him to create this walking route in the city centre with lots of artistic potential and experiences.
