On one side, you see the old city, and on the other, the water and the green floodplain area.

Museums and culture in Deventer<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3569\" data-end=\"3816\">Deventer boasts a remarkable number of museums for a city of its size. <strong data-start=\"3636\" data-end=\"3654\">Museum De Waag<\/strong> tells the story of the city and its role as a trade center, while the <strong data-start=\"3731\" data-end=\"3750\">Toy Museum<\/strong> is especially fun for families (but secretly also for adults).<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3818\" data-end=\"4004\">Additionally, Deventer is known as a book city. <strong data-start=\"3866\" data-end=\"3890\">Bookstore Praamstra<\/strong> (formerly Deventer Bookstore) is the oldest bookstore in the Netherlands and feels like an attraction in itself.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3818\" data-end=\"4004\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-38079\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/22181253\/deventer-stadhuis.png\" alt=\"Deventer city hall\" width=\"938\" height=\"469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/22181253\/deventer-stadhuis.png 800w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/22181253\/deventer-stadhuis-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/22181253\/deventer-stadhuis-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/22181253\/deventer-stadhuis-585x293.png 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 938px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"141\" data-end=\"494\">The city hall of Deventer combines historic and modern architecture.
