Rotterdam, Villas and Luxury Homes for sale - Prestigious Properties in Rotterdam

Rotterdam, originally a fisherman’s town, today has the largest port in Europe. During the second World War the majority of the city was reconstructed, an important initial step towards becoming the modern metropolis that it is today. Rotterdam is sometimes called ‘Manhattan on the Maas’, because here 173 different nationalities live together in peace. The city is host to many national and international corporations and home to important universities such as Erasmus University. It boasts a great infrastructure with an international airport and offers many tourist attractions such as the International Film Festival and a dazzling nightlife such that it has repeatedly been called the Netherlands’ “City of Events.” Rotterdam offers beautiful landscapes and numerous skyscrapers, including the tallest residential tower in the Netherlands, the "New Orleans".
