Woerden is indeed on the railtrack to Leiden, but this railtrack goes to Utrecht as well. So Woerden is only one of the stations, and not the last station. Woerden is also on the railtrack Rotterdam-Gouda-Breukelen-Amsterdam, and Rotterdam/Denhaag-Gouda-Utrecht.

I know, this is a start, additional templates need to be added.--Patrick 01:25, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trout in Woerden?

The river in Woerden is not known for trout. Never heard of this infamous trout fishing event either... Don't believe it so! 57.67.146.66 14:06, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Erich von Braunschweig

Does anyone here have access to
Plomp, Nico (1972). Woerden 600 jaar stad. Woerden: Stichting Stichts-Hollandse Bijdragen etc., 100-103. ISSN 0929-9718. 
The present version of the article states the following ... the Lutheran duke Erik van Brunswijk, who was Lord of Woerden around 1570, tolerated the Lutheran confession in the city. The problem with that is that Erich von Braunschweig converted from Lutheranism to Catholicism, and a hardliner too; see de:Erich II. (Calenberg-Göttingen). Plomp talks about Braunschweig's brutal suppression of the Lutheran Reformation in Woerden in September 1566, see pp 100-103. This is al I know about this sad episode, and if someone can complete/correct the story I would appreciate it. JdH 21:54, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
