A new website for a new Hanseatic city

Zaltbommel is officially a Hanseatic city and you will see and experience that everywhere in the coming weeks. In the streetscape, on the quay, at the statues and in the city centre. But also online. Because a new Hanseatic city deserves a new website. Hanzestadzaltbommel.nl is here and introduces you in a new way to the city, its history and everything there is to experience.

The website takes you along four walking routes, each with its own persona as a guide. You walk alongside Everardus the alderman, Jan the merchant, Marycken the miller's wife and Zacharias the sack carrier through the streets they themselves once knew. You discover the sights, read the stories behind the facades and get an impression of life in a bustling Hanseatic city. All in one place, clear and accessible to everyone.

But the website is only the beginning. The real discovery begins when you enter the city itself. Zaltbommel is best explored with your own feet on the cobblestones, the wind of the Waal at your back and history all around you. The website shows you the way. The city does the rest.

Orange on the Market during the Hanseatic Days

Football connects. They knew that in the Hanseatic era too, even if it was called something different back then. Cities working together, people seeking each other out, a shared sense of pride and solidarity: these are the values that made the Hanse great and that will come to life again on 20 June at the Market Square of Zaltbommel.

Host families sought for the Hanseatic Weekend

During the Hanse Days of 20 and 21 June 2026, Zaltbommel will come alive as a true medieval Hanse city. Guest actors from across the country will bring crafts, trade and daily life from the Hanse era to life in the city centre. Think of blacksmiths, weavers, potters and merchants filling the streets, squares and quays with the hustle and bustle of days gone by. For about ten of these actors, host families are still being sought who are willing to accommodate them during the night of Saturday 20 to Sunday 21 June.
