The square in front of Saint Lawrence church in Rotterdam was transformed into a little park in 2017. That refurbishment was the reason for making this spherical panorama.
Saint Lawrence Church is the only medieval building in downtown Rotterdam. During the bombing in 1940 the church was heavily damaged but after the war the monument was restored to its former glory.
The other buildings around the square are almost all post-war, with the exception of the power station of the city heating in the lower left. The buildings to the left and right are reconstruction buildings from the 1950's. On the top left, we see a residential building called De Hofdame from 2007. The construction at the bottom of the picture is the City Podium, dating from 2011.
On the left-hand side, we also see the statue of Rotterdam's city hero Desiderius Erasmus, born in 1466 in a house to the right of the church.
