De Wallen dates back to the 13th century as it lies within Amsterdam's oldest part, making its history easily traceable. The oldest remaining building, Oude Kerk and Warmoesstraat both date from this era. Prior to 1385, Amsterdam was protected by a moat with earthen walls and palisades on either side in both directions (now Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal and Oudezijds Voorburgwal respectively). Around 1385 fortifications of Amsterdam were further extended with two moats and walls: Nieuwezijds Achterburgwal (now Spuistraat) on each side; this area later came to be known as "de Wallen" due its central position within Amsterdam itself.
