Planning notes for Amsterdam
Amsterdam originated in the 13th century as a settlement near a dam on the Amstel River, from which its name is derived. It received city rights in 1306 and evolved from a fishing village into a primary center for global trade during the 17th century. This period, known as the Dutch Golden Age, saw the establishment of the Dutch East India Company in 1602 and the creation of the world’s first modern stock exchange. The city’s architecture is characterized by its 17th-century canal ring.
