In addition to your visit to the Dom Tower, the Dom Church, DOMunder, and Palace Lofen, there is much more to see on Domplein. Statues, historic buildings, hidden courtyards, and markings in the pavement—those who look closely will discover that Domplein is full of stories.
Wander along the square’s remarkable spots and discover what they reveal about the history of Utrecht.
Domplein owes its shape to the Romans. Around 2,000 years ago, they built a fort here. Wherever you enter Domplein, you will step over corten steel plates. These mark the location of the Roman wall of this former fort, lying beneath your feet. The yellow paving “inside the fort” refers to the sandy ground that was once here.
In addition to the yellow paving, you will notice other colours on Domplein. Each colour represents a different period in the square’s rich ecclesiastical history: dark brown for the vanished nave of the Dom Church, grey for the Holy Cross Chapel, and reddish-brown for St. Salvator’s Church.
Looking for a nice gift, want to find out what there is to do on Domplein or in Utrecht, or interested in joining a tour? Be sure to stop by the Utrecht Store. In addition to typical—and very cool—souvenirs, you’ll also find unique Utrecht products made by local creators.

Everyone is welcome in the Dom Church, and you can simply walk in. Whether you’re looking for a moment of peace, want to light a candle, relax in the Dom Café, or pick up a special souvenir from the Dom Shop.
You can also enjoy concerts every Saturday afternoon during the Saturday Afternoon Music series.

On Domplein, you’ll find a large stone map that comes to life on your phone. Download the accompanying app and a detailed 3D model of Utrecht will appear right in front of you.
Move your phone around the model, zoom in on the streets, and view the city centre from new perspectives—all while standing on Domplein. With a single tap, you can switch between two moments in time: 1560, when Utrecht was flourishing at the end of the Middle Ages, and 2026.
The model is an initiative by Sociëteit De Constructieve and is a gift to the city of Utrecht.
