• the old city hall.

All are important parts of the historic city centre. Movie fans may recognise the famous sights shown in movies. Dordrecht has museums, theatres and a cinema. Large stores but also small special shops to please the shopaholics! The gourmets can eat in a lot of different restaurants.
