Voorburg, Roman settlement site in South Holland, Netherlands
Voorburg stretches along the Vliet canal, featuring tree-lined streets, historic buildings, and residential neighborhoods near The Hague metropolitan area.
The settlement originated as Forum Hadriani in 69-70 AD, serving as an urban center for the Cananefates tribe until Germanic invasions in the third century.
Philosopher Baruch Spinoza completed his Theological Political Treatise while residing in Voorburg between 1663 and 1670, marking a period of intellectual productivity.
The town maintains three railway stations on the Hague-Utrecht line, providing direct connections to major cities within the Randstad region.
The Voorburg Cricket Club at Sportpark Westvliet holds International Cricket Council certification as an official One Day International match venue.
