This narrow street in Zwolle is named
Papenstraat, or
Pastor Street, because the home of ´den Pape´ ('de pastoor', 'the Pastor') was located here until 1580. Before that this street was called
Keizerstraat,
Emperor Street, named after emperor Frederick III who gave Zwolle permission to manufacture coins.
What a fine street, thanks for sharing.
