The Sylroede

Netherlands, Hindeloopen, May 2008

The Sylroede is the main channel in Hindeloopen, an old city in the North of the Netherlands on the IJsselmeer.
The town received city rights in 1225 and in 1368 it became a member of the Hanseatic League.
Since the 12th and 13th century, shippers of Hindeloopen undertook journeys to the North and Baltic Sea Coasts.
The strong overseas connections with foreign countries and infrequent contact with the hinterland were probably the
reasons for the developing of the Hindeloopen language; a mixture of West Frisian, English, Danish, and Norwegian.
