Vor 400 Jahren kamen die ersten Schiffe der Niederländischen Ostindien-Kompanie zurück in die Niederlande, gefüllt mit blauem und weißem Porzellan aus China. Dieses Porzellan wurde bei wohlhabenden Familien wie den europäischen Königshäusern sehr beliebt. Als der Import von chinesischem Porzellan infolge von Bürgerkriegen in China zurückging, nutzten die niederländischen Töpfereien die Gelegenheit und entwickelten ihre eigene Version dieses blauen und weißen Porzellans. Dies führte zur Geburt von Delfter Blau in den Niederlanden. Heutzutage ist Delfter Blau ein echtes Wahrzeichen der Niederlande.

Your guide shares the stories hidden behind the city's facades, at your pace. Then you visit Royal Delft, the only Delft Blue manufacturer still operating since the 17th century.
