About Sint Jorisplein
Sint Jorisplein Shopping Centre is an urban shopping destination that serves as the starting point for a shopping day in Amersfoort’s historic city centre. The centre offers a strong leasing proposition compared to the historic shopping streets, thanks to its large units, which can accommodate brands such as H&M, The Sting, and C&A. The addition of vanHaren further enhances the representation of the footwear sector at Sint Jorisplein. Moreover, the underground car park (long-term leased to Q-Park) is a key access point to Amersfoort’s city centre.
