About Us

  

Spot on HIStories was born out of a deep passion for history and storytelling. We believe that history comes to life by telling stories at the places where it actually took place.

Spot on HIStories was founded by Roel Linn. Roel studied History at Leiden University and has worked for many years as a communication professional at the Dutch government. Additionally, Roel brings unique expertise as a certified first-degree History teacher. His tireless enthusiasm for the subject and a chance opportunity to work as a volunteer guide at the 'DOMunder' Foundation further fueled his fascination with the history of Utrecht. This passion and the desire to share it ultimately led to the development of the first historical walks.

 

 

Roel is not only an independent city guide in Utrecht, but he has also completed the official training of the City Guild in his hometown Amersfoort. With great pleasure, he shares the stories of Amersfoort and Utrecht as a 'Guild Guide' to anyone who wants to hear them.
