Rhenen 🇳🇱 — Aerial 4K

Rhenen received city rights in 1258 after the place was first mentioned in 855 as "villa Hreni". In the Middle Ages Rhenen was the most advanced point of support of the bishop of Utrecht in his constant struggle against the dukes of Gelre. The bishop owned Ter Horst castle here, which was destroyed later in 1543. After the centralization of the government by Emperor Charles V, Rhenen became a quiet garrison town, which – as one of the five towns of the Sticht area – played a modest role in the administration of the region. In the 17th century, the expelled King Frederick V established a summer residence in Rhenen. He had the palace built in 1630-1631. This Royal Palace, as it was called, was demolished in 1812. Currently, only a memorial stone and the street name Frederik van de Palatinate remind of the monarch's residence. In May 1940 there were street fights between Germans and Dutch during the Battle of Grebbeberg. The population was evacuated to the west and did not return until May 18. The town turned out to be badly damaged. More than 150 homes were completely destroyed, while approximately a thousand homes were heavily damaged. Cunera church and tower were still standing and could be restored. Shortly after citizens returned, the clearing of debris was started. Architect Pouderoyen made a design for the rebuilding of the town in a short period of time. A conscious decision was made not to rebuild the destroyed houses, but to redesign them according to the ideas of the Delft School. Pouderoyen also chose to have the provincial road run through the center instead of around it. In the course of 1942 the reconstruction plan was largely completed. However, Rhenen was hit again during the battles of 1944 and 1945, so called "The liberation of the Netherlands". In 1950, during work on the road from Rhenen to Elst, graves were found in the slope of the Donderberg. It turned out to be a Frankish burial field with about 1100 graves dating to 350-750 AD. It is the richest Merovingian burial field found in Europe. The jewelry from there can be seen in the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden. ================================================================ Shot on DJI Mini 2.
