Eindhoven is the Lichtstad, the town Philips built, and you walk it from village to village. In 1920 Woensel, Strijp, Stratum, Gestel and Tongelre joined the old centre, and their roads still carry the names: The Village Roads asks you to walk all five. In between lie the garden villages Philips built for its workers, and streets still named after old Brabant fields, akker, beemd and ven, which Fields and Fens collects.
Pass the Evoluon's flying saucer, the White Lady and the brick halls of Strijp-S, end the evening on Stratumseind, and follow the Dommel through green parks. Every buurt you finish lights up on your map.
Eindhoven’s own achievements
Every city in Every Street has badges only it has. These are Eindhoven’s.
Every Stadsdeel
Eindhoven grew out of six villages that merged in 1920. Set foot in all seven stadsdelen, from Centrum to Woensel-Noord.
The Village Roads
Walk the five old roads named after the villages that joined Eindhoven in 1920: Woenselsestraat, Strijpsestraat, Stratumsedijk, Gestelsestraat and Tongelresestraat.
Fields and Fens
Walk streets named like old Brabant fields: -akker (field), -beemd (meadow), -ven (heath pool), -broek (marsh), -donk (sandy rise), -dries and -rijt.
Stratumseind
Walk Stratumseind end to end, said to be the longest pub street in the Netherlands. A drink in every café is optional.
Dommel Trail
Follow the Dommelpad along the river through the city, from the Genneper Parken in the south to the edge of Son en Breugel.
Like every city, Eindhoven also has Bridge Hunter, Buurt Collector and Landmarks.
