Henric van Veldeken

Maastricht (Limburg), Netherlands view map

It is believed that the first written words in Maastricht dialect were by Henric van Veldeken (1128 - after 1190). Born near Hasselt (now in Belgium) he was a poet in Maastricht and the court of Kleve (now in Germany). He was renowned for his lyrical poetry.
