Last edition 'Het Krimpens Kwartiertje' festively distributed

Krimpen aan den IJssel - On Tuesday 30 June 2020, the fourth and last issue of 'Het Krimpens Kwartiertje' will be published in an edition of 2,500 pieces. The magazine is intended for the elderly and other vulnerable inhabitants of Krimpen aan den IJssel, who are unable to leave the house or receive visitors due to the Corona virus, and are published by the Platform 'On Distance Close to Krimpen'.

Now that the visiting scheme for the elderly and vulnerable persons has been phased out completely because of Corona, the platform 'On Distance Close to in Krimpen' has decided to stop the 'Het Krimpens Kwartiertje'. At the moment, discussions are being held with others about a possible sequel to 'Het Krimpens Kwartiertje'. If there is news about this, we will report it on our website www.krimpenskwartiertje.nl .

This song says goodbye in style. All articles and photos, in addition to the regular sections such as 'Exercise tips', 'Waving at a distance', breathe the theme of Melancholy. Melancholy of the past, the Shrinking of the past or persons of the past. The song includes an interview with two sisters who emigrated to Canada about their memories of Krimpen, a nostalgic story about 'Kachelpoets' by writer Joke Verweerd, articles about the explosion at snack bar Baanen in May 1968, the bath house, the ferry Van der Ruit , 50 years of bus transport in Krimpen aan den IJssel, and the farewell of Mayor Lennie Huizer, who also writes the preface. There are also many photos of, among others, the Krimpen shipyards and of the housekeeping school - popularly known as 'Spinazieacademie' - and its director, Miss Laaij. At the heart of the magazine an old game is included: the Harlequin game.

On Tuesday, June 30, 2020, the team from the platform 'On Distance Close by in Krimpen', accompanied by an old Dutch barrel organ, will pass through Krimpen from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The latest edition of 'Het Krimpens Kwartiertje' will be delivered to the care institutions for the elderly, Crimpenersteyn and Tiendhove and to the various residential complexes for seniors within Krimpen aan den IJssel.

Municipalities support National Moluccan Monument

This year it will be 70 years ago that the 1st generation Moluccans were transferred to the Netherlands in 1951 with 12 ship transports. On command, about 4000 Moluccan KNIL soldiers and Navy men came to the Netherlands with their families (in total 12,500 persons). At the point of arrival of the 1st transport ship at the Lloydkade in Rotterdam, it is not yet possible to trace a historical event. The National Moluccan Monument Foundation (LMM) is committed to realizing a monument. The monument will be a tribute to this 1st generation Moluccans and their families and in recognition of the shared past. The monument can also serve to continue telling the story of the arrival of Moluccans in the Netherlands to current and future generations. For anyone interested in this history, the foundation wants to offer an opportunity to learn more. They believe that more knowledge of each other's past leads to more understanding. To realize a monument, the LMM foundation has entered into a p

Largest water lily in the world blooms in Leiden

The oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands, the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden, has a wonderful pineapple scent. That means that the Victoria Amazonica is in bloom. With leaves that can grow up to two meters wide, this is the largest water lily in the world and its flowers smell like pineapple. The flower of the Victoria Amazonica is a night bloomer and only blooms in high summer. What is special is that the water lily only blooms for two nights. Rogier de Vugt, cashier of the Leiden Hortus Botanicus, knows everything about the plant. "The first night the flower is white and gives off a strong pineapple smell, which attracts beetles. The second night the flower turns pink and has no smell anymore. The beetles still come to it and are covered with pollen", explains De Vugt. Because the plant has an enormous size, only one can grow in the pond of the Hortus. "The leaves have raised edges, so they can't grow over each other, so they can't get any light anymore. Th
