Thorn, the white town in Limburg

Art code: 770 241 Copy the art code

Eus Driessen Profile picture Thorn in Limburg is also known as the white town. This is the fault of the French. After the noble ladies fled in 1794, the French introduced a tax based on the size of the windows. The poor population, often living in large properties that had previously belonged to rich people, could not afford this. In order to limit the size of the tax bill, the windows were bricked up. In order to hide these traces of construction ("scars of poverty"), the houses were painted white.

Passion for photography in all forms. From abandoned buildings to landscapes, from night photography to concert photography. By photographing abandoned buildings people want to take them to the hidden world behind walls where nature slowly takes back the building. And now these pictures can also hang on your wall.
