Eenige veertiende eeuwsche oorkonden
Series: Gorcumse Oudheden Author: W.A. van der Donk Publication year: 1941 Pages: 14 File size: 3,2 MB More DetailsW.A. van der Donk discusses several important charters from the 14th century relating to the history of Gorinchem. One of these documents is a charter from 1322 in which William III, Count of Holland, grants the citizens of Gorinchem freedom to pay tolls within his territory. This charter confirms Gorinchem's importance as a major trading center during that period. Van der Donk also discusses a charter from 1382, also known as the "city charter of Gorinchem," in which Otto van Arkel grants various rights and privileges to the city. This document is considered a crucial step in Gorinchem's development as a full-fledged city. Van der Donk places these charters in their historical context and emphasizes their value for a better understanding of Gorinchem's early history and development in the fourteenth century under the rule of the Lords of Arkel.
