Rembrandt, the master of light, was born in the 17th century in Leiden. Celebrating his anniversary,
in the old city of Leiden on a weekend in Juli 2007 a festival was organized. People were dressed like in the
17th century. Art exhibitions, theater plays and art workshop were organized, as well as
guided tours through the Grachten and alleys of old Leiden. A great colourful event, not only for
'fans' of the painter Rembrandt.
