The Port of Amsterdam

The first port activities in Amsterdam date back to the 13th century. The port was first mentioned in the year 1342 when the city of Amsterdam received city rights. Recently, in the our Golden Age, the port has been transformed into one of the main harbors of the our East India Company and our operations around the globe. Merchants bring exotic goods to our markets from shores of extreme distance as they are attracted by the busy vibe of our beautiful city, the new pearl of our affluent times!
