Caption: Utrecht is the third oldest city in the Netherlands.
Its history can be traced back to the stone age. But the founding date is mostly seen as 50 BC when the romans built a castellum around what is now the Domplein.
Now you can find the beautiful Domtower and Domchurch there.

Caption: Just like in Amsterdam you can also find a lot of canals here.
What is uniquely Utrecht is the yard cellars you can find at here.
They were mainly used to transport goods from boats through the cellar into the house.

Caption: The Zeven Steegjes is one of the last working class neighborhoods in the centre of Utrecht.
These workercottages were built in the 19th century and didn't have any indoor plumbing.
So the entire neighborhood shared outside kitchens and bathrooms.
