The city of Utrecht is home of a historical canal-system, the impressive medieval Dom tower, the UNESCO world heritage listed Rietveld Schröder House, and a beautiful medieval city centre, where, in 1713, the Treaty of Utrecht was signed which ended a century of devastating European wars.

Utrecht University (founded in 1636) is the largest university in the Netherlands and the intellectual icon of the historical yet fastest growing region in the Netherlands.
