Sister Cities of the World

Sister cities of Zutphen

Zutphen (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈzʏtfə(n)]) is a city in the province of Gelderland in the Netherlands. It lies some 30 km north-east of Arnhem, on the Eastern bank of the river IJssel at the point where it is joined by the Berkel. The name Zutphen (first mentioned in the eleventh century) appears to mean 'zuid-veen', or in English, south-fen.

In 2005, the municipality of Zutphen was merged with the municipality of Warnsveld, retaining its name. The municipality has about 47,000 inhabitants.

Zutphen is also twinned with the English town Shrewsbury, in the Midlands county of Shropshire.
