Nederland - Dordrecht, Arend Maartenszhof

Nederland - Dordrecht, Arend Maartenszhof
The ‘Arend Maartenszhof’ is (for me) the most beautiful almshouses in Dordrecht. It was founded in 1625 by Arend Maartenszoon - a wealthy inhabitant of the city - for poor women and widows of soldiers who died for their country. Thirty-eight cottages surround a courtyard with lots of flowers, ancient trees and a water well (see PiP) and are nowadays housing both men and women.

It looks a beautiful place. I like the pantiled roofs. We have a lot of these in Fife. They came over from the Netherlands when there was a lot of trading between the two countries. A fair bit of Dutch influence in the architecture in this area.
