LOCATION INFORMATION

About the City Rotterdam is The Netherlands' second city and was developed as a shipping port in the 14th Century. Today, it is the biggest port, biggest refining and storage area and biggest bunkering centre in Europe. The original fishing village grew into a city on the back of the herring trade, the surging economy of the Dutch East Indies and the opening of the New Waterway link to the North Sea. New districts and shipping facilities opened up following the devastation of World War II, and the city centre was reborn.
