which is still intact. Select serviced apartments in Tiel with SilverDoor on

Facts about Tiel
A visit to Tiel will see you visiting one of the oldest
cities in the Netherlands; it was first mentioned in a document dating back to
855, where the destination was referred to as “Dioli”. In the 20th
century the city became a major fruit production centre. For a marketing
campaign by a factory that had operations in Tiel, a little boy name Flipje
was created, who resembles a raspberry with arms and legs. Although the factory
was closed down, Flipje still remains as the city’s mascot and statues of him
can be found around the city or you can learn more about his history in the
dedicated Streek
Museum.
