On October 27, 1275, the famous toll privilege was granted to the Amsterdammers by Floris V – a document that is traditionally seen as the 'birth certificate' of Amsterdam. The famous toll privilege of Floris V from 1275 is the oldest document in which Amsterdam is officially mentioned, and it is traditionally seen as a kind of birth certificate of the city. On October 27, 1275, Count Floris V of Holland granted the residents of 'Amestelledamme' the right to transport their goods freely through the county of Holland, without having to pay toll. This privilege gave Amsterdam a tremendous economic boost: merchants could now advantageously take their goods to other cities, contributing to the development of Amsterdam as a trading center.
