Comment from Philippa Burne
Utrecht is The Netherlands’ fourth largest city, center of the Dutch Catholic church and home to the largest university in the country, Utrecht University.
The city had its heyday in the early Middle Ages when it was the country’s biggest city (until Amsterdam took over), and many of its buildings and its layout still date from then.
