In the 4th century, Antwerp was first named, having been settled by the Germanic Francs. The name was reputed to have been derived from

"anda" (at) and “werpum" (wharf) .

Although Antwerp was formerly a fortified city, nothing remains of the former enceinte or of the old citadel

defended by General Chassé in 1832, except for the Steen, which has been restored.
