Dordrecht, or Dort, a mint of the Counts of Holland in the 13th c., and of the Dukes of Burgundy as Counts of Holland in the 15th. 
It was at a later period one of the regular mints for the Dutch Indies, and also struck money for the Batavian Republic (1795-1804): mintmark: a rose. 
In 1572, four years into the Dutch Revolt, representatives of all the cities of Holland, with the exception of Amsterdam, as well as the Watergeuzen, represented by William II de la Marck, gathered in Dordrecht to hold the Eerste Vrije Statenvergadering ("First Assembly of the Free States"), also known as the Unie van Dordrecht ("Union of Dordrecht"). This secret meeting, called by the city of Dordrecht, was a very rebellious act since only King Philip II or his stadtholder, at that time the Duke of Alva, were allowed to call a meeting of the states.
During the meeting, the organization and financing of the rebellion against the Spanish occupation was discussed, Phillip II was unanimousley denounced and William of Orange was chosen as the new stadtholder and recognized as the official leader of the revolt. Oranje was promised financial support of his struggle against the Spanish and at his own request, freedom of religion was declared in all of Holland.
The gathering is regarded as the first important step towards the free and independent Dutch Republic. Other gatherings such as the Union of Brussel (1577) and the Union of Utrecht (1579) paved the way to the official independence of the Netherlands, which was declared in the Act of Abjuration in 1581.
The Union of Dordrecht was held in an Augustinian monastery, nowadays simply called het Hof ("the Court"). The room in which the meeting was held is called de Statenzaal ("The Hall of States") and features a stained glass window in which the coats of arms of the twelve cities that were present at the meeting can be seen.

Dordrecht es una población de Holanda Meridional, en los Países Bajos. Fue en esta ciudad donde en 1572 se proclamó la independencia de las Provincias Unidas.

Am 15.-16. Juli 1572 kamen Repräsentanten der meisten Städte der Niederlande in Dordrecht, im Gebäude „Het Hof“, zusammen. Dort machten sie Wilhelm von Oranien zu ihrem Führer und erklärten ihre Unabhängigkeit von Spanien.
