The old center survived the [[World War II|Second World War]] almost in its entirety despite the [[bombing of Zutphen]]. However, some parts of the city were lost, especially the area around the [[Train station|railway station]], in the northern part of the city centre, known as the {{lang|nl|Nieuwstad}} (English: New City). The city center includes many monumental buildings dating back to the 14th and 15th centuries, and some even date back to the 13th century, such as a retirement home area. There are also remains of the old town walls in several places.

Today, Zutphen is a modern small city. The urban area, which includes the village of Warnsveld, has about 51,000 inhabitants. Food shops are open from 8:30; Other stores are open from 9:30 to 18:00 on weekdays, on Friday evenings until 21:00 and on Saturdays until 17:00. Some stores open earlier, and the larger supermarkets usually stay open until 22:00.
