My Hometown

A R N H E M:

English:
I live in the city of Arnhem.
The vibrant city is located on the Rhine.
Arnhem is a very old city, although you can barely see that because of the damage caused in the Second World War.
The city of Arnhem had its real origins in 1233 when Otto II, count of Guelders from Zutphen, conferred city rights on the town.
