Voelhaven is a small Dutch-style coastal town being built by P.P.A. It is intended to become the nucleus of a colonial state called Nieuw Walschor.

Founding

Voelhaven was founded on the 09th December 2012 by P_P_A. Realising that >he would never be Dutch, he set out to build a cute & adorable Dutch-styled town in Minecraft instead.

Status

The fortifications—four bastions, arranged in a quarter-circle and protected by a moat and a glacis—have taken shape, though further geoengineering is needed, and a citadel to be added. Some streets have been laid out; the marketplace is surrounded by the waterfront, a windmill, and the incomplete town hall. Planned next is a bocage landscape to surround the settlement, followed by a church and miscellaneous other buildings.

Voelhaven is located to the western side of a large bay, and at the edge of a forest. Plans are for this forest to be replaced by a bocage landscape.
