Zone historique de Willemstad, centre ville et port, Curaçao
UNESCO site
Date of inscriptio: 1997
The people of the Netherlands established a trading
settlement at a fine natural harbour on the Caribbean island of Curaçao in
1634. The town developed continuously over the following centuries. The modern
town consists of several distinct historic districts whose architecture
reflects not only European urban-planning concepts but also styles from the
Netherlands and from the Spanish and Portuguese colonial towns with which
Willemstad engaged in trade.
