Delft Unmissables

Delft's historic center is defined by the leaning tower of the 13th-century Oude Kerk and the royal burial vaults within the Gothic Nieuwe Kerk. The city’s architectural legacy includes the Renaissance Stadhuis and the 15th-century Oostpoort, the last remaining city gate. Artistic history is preserved at the Vermeer Centrum and the Prinsenhof, while the tradition of Delft Blue pottery remains active at Royal Delft and De Delftse Pauw. The central Markt hosts weekly markets, and the Beestenmarkt serves as a historic pedestrian square.
