Rotterdam

Rotterdam

Rotterdam, the second largest city in Netherlands, was destroyed during World War II and it was rebuilt some decades after. Because of the war, classic medieval Dutch architecture was washed away along with the other rubble and debris of war. Despite destruction, as a result of the city's postwar, postmodern philosophy, the city has developed an architectural aesthetic that is unique in Europe.

In fact, Rotterdam is known as a city rich in history and architecture. In the few square kilometers of the city center, you have a comprehensive overview of what the 20th century produced in terms of modern architecture. Thanks to its position, the city has always been a meltingpot of people and it is still known as a multicultarl city.

Kiel

Kiel

Kiel is a city in Eder River and it is near the Baltic Sea. Hamburg and Lübeck are the nearest cities and are about 90 kilometres far from Kiel.
The origins of Kiel are dated back to XII Century. The city was established by Schauenburg Family and it was the farthest north city of the Holy Roman Empire. Among the noteworthy structures, the University is one of the most ancient and was founded in 1665.
During the years, Kiel was subjected to the influence of the neighbouring countries and has been property of Denmark and Sweden. Germany took it back in 1815. At the end of XIX Century, Kiel Canal was opened. It is about 100 kilometres long, and it links the Baltic Sea with the North Sea and it’s been so far one of the most congested canals in the world. Kiel is an important port for the cruises to Northern Europe and has all summer long many departures for the Baltic Capitals and the Norwegian Fjords.

Kiel is an important port of the cruise market: many of the cruises to Northern Europe depart from Kiel. It is no coincidence that it is the most important port in Germany.
