City of familiar faces

Our city was built on steam and stride.
Resilience as the breeding ground for ancient innovation.
We are proud. Of our city, our club and our progress.
And although our backgrounds differ,
we are all cut from the same kind of wood.
For being yourself is just what we do around here.
Being there for each other the obvious.
And even though we are modest by nature, we have
to admit that that is what makes our city special.
With a neverlasting faith in progress, we are building Enschede.
From our own wilful ‘Twentse’ nature.
To see what can be improved.
We invite you to help us build this city, because together we will shape her.
That is how we build the city of our dreams.
