Despite doubts, the town of Weesp is now part of Amsterdam

The town of Weesp is officially part of Amsterdam from Thursday, following a decision to merge in 2018, backed by 56% of the population in a referendum that year. Weesp, with a population of some 20,000, was granted city rights in 1355. The decision to incorporate Weesp into Amsterdam means the capital now has eight borough councils – Noord, Zuid, West, Oost, Nieuw-West, Zuidoost, Centrum and Weesp.

Weesp is a popular stop for tourists. It has a protected historical center with canals and many buildings dating from the seventeenth and eighteenth century. Weesp has three full-size historical windmills. It features a bastion and fortifications that are part of the Defense line of Amsterdam and the Dutch Water Line. These structures have never been attacked, though. The scenic river Vecht and the small roads that line it attract yachters and cyclists. The Naardermeer area, the first nature reserve in the Netherlands, is at 15 minutes cycling distance from Weesp; it protects the Gooi landscape. The Weesp local museum is located in the town's city hall.
