Podcast Story of Utrecht

Podcast about forgotten queer stories from Utrecht's history

In a new podcast, Pim Sierink (Landschap Erfgoed Utrecht) and Evert van der Veen (Queer U Stories) reflect on a month of guest editorship of Het Verhaal van Utrecht. Together they investigate how Utrecht's queer history — long underexposed in schoolbooks and archives — is becoming increasingly visible.

The episode shows that behind almost every Utrecht front door lies a queer story. By highlighting forgotten events and remarkable individuals, the city's history not only becomes more colorful but also more complex.
