There are two types of “shared space” in the Netherlands.  
Basically:

- Urban area’s in which all road users move in a free space. Nothing is indicated
- Residential area’s with a “woonerf”. It is indicated by a sign

Example of an small (partial) urban shared space:  
It’s not clearly indicated. You see all road users moving through on space (bikes, pedestrians, scooters). The sign on the right states that it is a pedestrian area and bicyclist and mopeds are allowed.

QUESTION

Is this square near the church a “shared space”?  
I think so, because road users do not have indicated places.

I think this is shared space! No hard lines for the road users, just make contact to eachother and drive safely.
