Product description

The second part of the series Verhalen van Dordrecht 'Gezichten van Dordrecht' is about the facades of Dordrecht. In particular about the faces in the facades. Masons used to have to build a facade as a master's test for the Dordrecht masons' guild. Heads were often held out of stone as decoration. Using a map in the booklet, author Jaap Bouman takes you on a walk around the inner city along the faces of Dordrecht. Along the way, you will learn about remarkable facades and gable heads.
