House plaques : Featured photos taken in Netherlands

House plaques

These plaques used to be used to identify addresses before house numbers were 'invented' in Amsterdam... what a hoot! Imagine telling friends where your house was for dinner parties - 'Oh yes, its on Keukenhof Street, and we are the one with the Virgin Mary holding the Jewish star'...
