On Sunday I visited a book market in the town of Bredevoort, which is organised several times a year. We had a quick walk around the town as well and visited some of the regular book shops and browsed some honesty book shops. The variety of books was really great, with quite some books in German and English, and I also saw books in Icelandic, Russian and Faroese. I bought two books in German myself, as well as some postcards. It was too bad it started raining in the afternoon or I would have stayed much longer. Well, on 22 October is the autumn book market, so I guess I'll just have to go again...
Some remnants of the Jewish past of the book city of #Bredevoort: the old synagogue (in use until World War One, currently a home), and the sole remaining cemetery, at the Prins Mauritsstraat (the other cemetery was demolished in the 1950s).
