	History of Oudenaarde. Tourist information about the city of Oudenaarde in Belgium.
		According to legend, the city of Oudenaarde was founded around an old Roman outpost and a fortification of the Visigoths that was built around 441.
		Situated alongside the banks of the river Scheldt, Oudenaarde soon used this waterway for commercial purposes, much to the dislike of the traders of the mighty city of Ghent who saw Oudenaarde's success as a threat to their own wealth and the development of their city.
		When French troops annexed Oudenaarde at the end of the 17th century, Louis XIV of France demanded that the Oudenaarde tapestry weavers went to France to help their colleagues in Beauvais and Gobelin save their dying tapestry industry.

		As in Oudenaarde, it becomes clear that level 1 is to be taken as a reference plane.
