The city of Delft
The Workshop will be held at the Aula Conference Centre of Delft University
of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands. Delft, an beautiful city with a historic
city centre with old canals and ancient buildings, is more than 750 years
old. The city owes its name to the word 'delving', digging the oldest canal,
the Oude Delft. In 1246, Delft received its city franchise from the Dutch
Earl Willem II. Delft flourished and new neighbourhoods were added. As early
as 1355 the city reached the size it would remain until the 19th century.
