History
Doesburg received town rights in 1237, this was years later than the neighbouring city of Doetinchem. Because of its strategic position along the Oude IJssel and Gelderse IJssel, Doesburg is an important vestingstad, has for a long time been.  The vestingstag, a defensible city made Doesburg an important economic and administrative city. The Martinikerk, the main church in Doesburg is 94 meters tall. For many reasons, many of which have to do with the IJssel decreasing in depth, the prosperity in Doesburg settled after the 15th century. Doesburg changed into a sleepy province borough and so it would remain especially after the war. The city was protected in 1974, designated as a historic town. Because Doesburg up to 1923 was officially a vestingstad, town extension was not possible.
