About "The famous unknown canal"

About the artwork

The Groenburgwal is an Amsterdam canal that connects the Raamgracht with the Amstel river. The Groenburgwal is situated parallel to the Kloveniersburgwal and the Zwanenburgwal, in the shadow of the tower of the Zuiderkerk.

The area between the Kloveniersburgwal and the Zwanenburgwal was until the late 16th century still "the area outside the fortress at the Amstel". In 1593 the area was annexed to the city.

Here cloth weavers, where wool was was washed, carded and spun, to weave a sheet of cloth, which after being filled and dyed on wooden frames (the so-called cloth windows) was stretched to dry and stretch. The names of the nearby Raamgracht, the Raamsloot near the Russia dug in 1537, and the Verversstraat (1593) are reminders of those activities.

At the beginning of the 17th century the Amstel between Kloveniersburgwal and Groenburgwal and later the 's Gravelandse Veer, between Groenburgwal and Blauwbrug, was constructed. Around that time the name Groenburgwal also came into being; this is where the green dyers were located.
