It's based off the Sint Willibrordus Church in Westkapelle, completed in 1470. Throughout the years parts of it were destroyed until only the tower was standing. It was converted to a lighthouse in 1802 and miraculously survived heavy bombing by the allies during WWII, it's still serving as a lighthouse today.

Amazing video! Cool idea to have the history shown, in many Minecraft builds that is a factor people often forget: they want to build something and just build it. Which can make it look artificial, because almost never in real life a build starts of on a blank slate: there are always external factors that dictate the dimensions of a build, which is why old cities often feel quite organic and charmingly chaotic. They have grown, Rome wasn’t build in a day. Ofcourse Minecraft isn’t the real world but remembering that when building a city can make it so much more real, layered and vibrant!
This is a cool video! I watch a lot of countryball history videos, and this video gives a little more detail about what countries might have looked like back then, I might watch more videos like this some other time in the future
awesome to see another European version of this trend, especially for a region with so much history to explore and such distinctive architecture. great video well done :)
This is so cool!, I myself did something similar like this. I have my own little Port town on my Minecraft that was founded in the 1760s but by 1899 my town is a full-on little city with cobble Street stones, stone brick sidewalks with gas lights Victorian/ Edwardian, brick buildings but now in 2024, My city has neighborhoods and a historical districts
It's very realistic, definitely the 1980 to 2025 part. I see a lot of photos from that time where there are parking spaces there and now there is just a park or something
You did a very good job when it comes to being historically accurate with the roman architecture and other details, you dont see that in other videos like these. good job.
@@Crested_Penguin I'd say that's because this was a genuine little passion project, I just love Dutch architecture and history so details like the church's appearance changing over time come naturally. I don't think I'd be able to do one of the same quality of a Spanish city for example because I just don't have the same interest in Spanish architecture or history and haven't spent years studying it and growing up around it.
@@C.A._Old This is kind of a crazy coincidence because I was making a video exactly like that but in Source Filmmaker almost a year ago. I eventually lost motivation for it because it took too long, maybe some day I'll remake it in Minecraft.
Very cool! Suggestion if you ever make a second version: You could make a 1800 one with French flags waving in the street. Also neoclassicism was a hot architecture style those days, so you could remake the Roman temple, but now as a 18th/19th century building (example is the City Hall of Groningen).
@@knaagdier Id like to see Florida through the years. Just take a look at the history of South Florida, that area has changed SO much through the years... especially Miami/Ft. Lauderdale (things definitely didn't change as much up here in the panhandle, which is my neck of the woods)
I think i used the teleport command to teleport me to the exact spot and then you can also enter a value for the direction you want to face. I made this video 9 months ago so im not sure what the exact command was.
Прикольно.👍 Переход на Вторую Мировую войну меня даже напугал😨 Пожалуй наибольшее впечатление на меня произвели ww2 и 2025 год, , из-за контракта между ними. Они как противоположности друг другу - разрушенный войной город, наполненный звуками перестрелок, разрывов снарядов и бомб, и умиротворённый 2025 год, в котором восстановленный после войны город является уютным и спокойным местом, в котором царят тишина и умиротворение.
This is actually such a cool way to show how a place changes over time
Yeeeeah!!
You are right
It reminds me of that lego animation.
that church stayed strong for centuries
I am from the Netherlands the church in my town was built in the 900s (even do it has been renovated and expanded throughout the years)

That transition to WW2 👌
Geweldig! Bravo! Die C1000 was wel leuke toevoeging!
I love how in 1980 there's C1000 (a Dutch supermarket chain) but in 2025 it no longer exists 😂😂
A relic of another age… There is a C1000 museum btw, it’s very cool.
Big fan of this video, especially the sounds from RDR2
That little house next to the crossroad survived a thousand years.
very creative video, nice work, i like that you demonstrated a combination of different dutch cities in this video
there the shipyard and Saint Denis rdr2 ambient sound 💀

Shits gonna be 5500BC again in the year 2100 😅
Haha
It's gonna come even quicker considering the party that just won the election 😭😭
Knowing the Dutch, it’s probably gonna go in reverse for them
@@darkpandalord3844also why did you feel the need to bring politics into this
No
Awesome video, would love to see more with different countries/regions.
Underrated
Great video! I loved the simpler style of buildings
I love how even some trees get bigger over the years. Good video
really cool idea id love to see more
awesome to see another European version of this trend, especially for a region with so much history to explore and such distinctive architecture.
great video well done :)
Where is Dutch van der Linde
I noticed the red dead ambiance too
He’s in Tahiti harvesting mangoes
@@Whiskey-cr9dqI got a plan arthur
This is beautiful, man
Love it❤️
Very good job, i can't wait to see more of this.
What a cool way to show history! u should make more of these they r so cool
Rip c1000😢
awesome idea!
This is great. 10/10
I like the detail of the flags changing, also I visited the Netherlands in 2022 and the 2025 depiction is so accurate
This is so cool!, I myself did something similar like this.

Man, thank you! It's really nice to see that someone is trying to add gamefication into education system!
Really cool concept!
Do more! Would love to see like an Italian city evolution and etc
Am I the only one who loves the idea of 700 BC? I think it's really cool how it can give you that feeling of antiquity.
Seeing the WW2 sent shivers down my spine
Lots of people died, homes destroyed, many displaced....
ITS GOING TO EXPLODE🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥☢️☢️☢️
Great content
It's very realistic, definitely the 1980 to 2025 part. I see a lot of photos from that time where there are parking spaces there and now there is just a park or something
Please do more of these

More videos like this please!
Can you make more videos like this one?
I love that the ambience is straight from rdr2
Very cool i sub hope you do more
Yourecthe only one who made the best dutch styled city!😅
"bro Minecraft is just a game"
Also Minecraft:
Amazing
_Gekoloniseerd!_

2:34 at this time we are certainly in the 80s, that is, the Vatican II Council is taking place, hence the reform in the church
*imagine you can make this same from half-life series from this one.*
the rdr2 ambience fits so well
bro the RDR2 sounds are a great touch tbh
Wilhelmus Van Nassouwe, Ben Ick van Duytschen bloet, Den Vaderlant getrouwe

Very cool!

İ left my heart at the WW2 part
Cool as hell
Nice video!
Thank you
@@knaagdierNp
This is how long it will take me to build this in Minecraft 😂
Can you do an italian city through the year next?
@@vasoooooo-gu1wj Maybe, I'm not very familiar with the complete history and how the architecture evolved though so it'd take a bit of research.
@@knaagdier what about a canadian one
@@knaagdier Id like to see Florida through the years. Just take a look at the history of South Florida, that area has changed SO much through the years... especially Miami/Ft. Lauderdale (things definitely didn't change as much up here in the panhandle, which is my neck of the woods)
@@knaagdier alr take ur time bro
Starts in the ocean and ends there 💀
Could you do a New York City one next?
New York city is a perfect idea for this format
How did you build it, respect
Pls make more, maybe France?
We need more
dude do more videos like this
school ❌
youtube and minecraft ✅
Nice
Can u do Dublin next?
I love this trend more plz
cool video
Could you do something based on wales? Maybe around west wales near aberystwyth
Bro did Netherlands dirty at the start
ocean in 5500 BC? how did the land form so quickly 😂
Dutch engineering
How you take screenshot at simmilar positions
I think i used the teleport command to teleport me to the exact spot and then you can also enter a value for the direction you want to face. I made this video 9 months ago so im not sure what the exact command was.
@@knaagdier thank you for answer
Cool!
Pretty cool
Cool👍！
12:20 and they are in indonesia probably
no one will ever know that there was water where they are eating their McDonald's
make more videos like this
Is this rdr2 ambients
I think it’s the one for Saint Denis
Yes.
Is bro living 1 year in the future?
The fact that this was made on a superflat world is too accurate. Where I live there's literally not a hill in sight, it's scary flat
Прикольно.👍
