I moved some text and one picture around.

I think the layout of the page needs more work.

A little more history would be nice.

[edit] WWII

I am deleting the sentence about how many good people died at the concentration camp. It's not for us to judge wether they are good or not. That's POV. If someone could get a name for the concentration camp, that would be good as well. - Big Brother is Watching

[edit] Vandalism

I think the people with their last names both 'Vogel' are not really notable people born in Amersfoort. It happens a lot lately that people like to put their names up there.

[edit] Link to Amer River - Correct?

A link has recently been made from this Amersfoort article to the article Amer River. However, the Amer in the WP article appears to be nowhere near Amersfoort. Is it a case of two rivers with the same name: a modern-day river named Amer in North Brabant province; and the Eem, formerly named the Amer, in Utrecht province, the river in question in this Amersfoort article? papageno (talk) 16:18, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

No, this is a incorrect link which should be "Eem". The Eem was named Amers but is now called Eem. However, ther stil apears to be a short river (12km) called Amer. this is NOT the same as the Eem. Greetings Matthias92 (talk) 09:29, 10 June 2008 (UTC) (from Amersfoort)
