Enschede is a city in the Netherlands. It is the largest city of the Twente region (a former center of textile industry), and also of the Overijssel province. Enschede was designated the greenest town in the Netherlands in 2003.

On May 13, 2000, a fireworks storage in Enschede exploded, destroying an entire neighborhood and killing 23 people, including 4 firemen. This catastrophe is known in the Netherlands as the Vuurwerkramp , Dutch for fireworks disaster. Since this event, the city has undergone a major reconstruction process.

After the fall of the textile industry, Enschede strives to become a center of business, innovation and technology through the Business & Science park, located just next to the University of Twente.
