- De Werfkelder - There are over 730 wharf cellars along the canals of Utrecht; storages bordering the wharfs so goods could be stored immediately after unloading ships. As far as known, the oldest wharf dates from 1150, when a merchant dug a tunnel from the basement of his house up to the bank of the canal. In many former cellars are now restaurants, galleries and shops. A great spot to enjoy a drink and some snacks after your walking tour!
