This bronze model shows the complete buildings of the city center to scale. The three-dimensional city map with a diameter of one and a half meters is a gift from the 75-year-old Rotary Deventer to the city.
The 2.5 ton model is unique to the Netherlands. Other cities have maps in bronze, but nowhere do they show all the buildings. The creator is the German artist Egbert Broerken. Blind and visually impaired people receive 'tangible' information about the city through this model. There is also additional information in Braille, including about the history of Deventer.
This point of interest is part of the tour: Deventer City Tour
