The working-class neighborhood used to be a neighborhood where "the common people" lived, often in small houses in poor condition. Every city had its working-class neighborhoods. Utrecht had Wijk C, once so named because the French occupiers could not (or would not) pronounce the Dutch names. Wijk C was Utrecht's most densely populated neighborhood 100 years ago. In the district, large families lived in small hovels. Although Wijk C is the only district in Utrecht still referred to by a letter, the neighborhood has changed a lot in the meantime. The working-class neighborhood of 100 years ago no longer exists, but it has resulted in the Volksbuurt Museum. We still live close together and there are all kinds of challenges in living together. Step into the life of the De Jong family and discover the big and small stories of ordinary life in a working-class neighborhood in Utrecht. Maybe after this you will look at your neighborhood with a completely different perspective!
