Maastricht probably is the oldest city of the Netherlands and the past is to be seen and to be felt in every street and alley, in the gables and in the ground. At some places the human activities of generations is reflected below the street-level of the city. Every generation adds archeological materials and destroys the elder artifacts. This since the Roman era, 200 A.D.
Recently the archeology is also considered of great importance for the knowledge and science of the development of the city. During the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century incidental excavations...

The Dutch city planning hardly has any relations with the historical and architectural structure of the city. Historical and architectural structures were ignored by the architects of the New Building and even by the more traditional architects of the Delft School.

The present border of the municipality Maastricht has largely been determined by the Peace treaty concluded at London in 1839 between Holland and Belgium.

Up to the 19th century a gradual internal development determinated the character of the city and returning processes of changing leave their traces.

Since 1800 cities have a larger need for control on the urban development, Maastricht has always been an important merchant- and fortified city. It is a unique city because of the fact that from 1350 the internal...

In 1988 the previous White Women-cloister at the northern side of the Vrijthof has had to make way for the planned 'Musictheatre' at Maastricht. Historical research dated parts of the three demolished cloister wings as built ca. 1515. Some cellars were older. An important conclusion from the results of the research is, that behind 17th century facades parts of in Maastricht very rare late medieval buildings were hidden.
Stock-taking of monuments shows that churches, cloisters and city-walls excluded, in Maastricht almost nothing is left from the period 1000-1600. Research however...
