Middelburg. This city is known for its history during the Golden Age.Middelburg has more than 1200 monuments. Walking through the city center you will feel like you are in a historic environment. Many buildings from the Golden Age have been preserved here. Large warehouses, imposing mansions, churches and photogenic picturesque alleys.I really enjoy the city.It is a wealth of information for my miniature house. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
In the 19th and 20th century, this kitchen table could be found in any kitchen. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The austerity and simplicity adorns the table. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Especially in the middle of the 20th century, this table held an important role. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was the piece of furniture and the place where the whole family was together.</div>
