650 years of provincial politics, what will we notice?
This year the province is commemorating the anniversary in many different ways. For example, the commissioner, but also the Electors and ProDemos visit secondary schools, MBOs, HBOs and the UU for lessons and activities. A book is published by a historian about 650 years of provincial politics. There are exhibitions in the Utrecht Archives and the Centraal Museum. Libraries in the province also have small exhibitions and lectures. There will be a bicycle tour along historical places with QR codes everywhere so that people can relive the story of the time. On May 17 (the date on which the bishop gave more autonomy to the States), there will be a celebration with lectures and music in the Dom Church with a medieval market outside.
