Gin gezeur wij varen deur

The history of the ferry in Gorinchem, from the Middle Ages to the present. For centuries, the ferry was essential for trade, transport, and connections between Gorinchem and surrounding towns. Over time, the ferries, owners, and routes have changed, partly due to technological developments and evolving infrastructure.
