Top 10 Hidden Gems Things to do in Limburg Province, The Netherlands

June 17, 2021 Enedina Augsburger

Getting its name from the medieval Duchy of Limburg (now split among Holland, Belgium and Germany and the birthplace of the infamously pungent Limburger cheese), Limburg is the Netherlands’ southernmost region. Many of the area’s best attractions are concentrated in the capital of Maastricht, but other sights include the 12th-century Valkenburg castle ruins, the 17th-century Eijsden castle, the 20th-century Glaspaleis (built next to a medieval church at Heerlen), and De Meinweg National Park.

Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial

Reviewed By JAS840 - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

We've visited several English and Canadian cemeteries in the Netherlands. This field of honor is for all American soldiers who fought for the liberation of the Netherlands 75 years ago. More than 10,000 Americans are buried in Margraten. It is certainly overwhelming to see so many white marble crosses on the green field. Respect.

War Museum Eyewitness

Reviewed By hw1963 - The Netherlands, null

Very good museum. They have a lot of original and unique things to see. It's a small museum in a former mayor house, but very good and very detailed. When you follow the story, which you can download with a special app, it comes even more alive. Nice detail is that most exposed characters have their own face. The museum is created from the point of view of the German soldier August, and gives a view on the way they have experienced the war.

Our guide, Willy, was a great source of information on the one hour + tour of the fort and it’s underground tunnels. It was really interesting to learn about the fort and its role in Maastricht’s history over the years. Great views over the city and surroundings.

Hertog Jan Brouwerij

Reviewed By Grommetje - Deurne, The Netherlands

Nice brewery in the south of the Netherlands. Specialized in their range of crafters of which the Grand Prestige is exquisite and world renowned. The brewery gives nice insight in the process of brewing and assembling as well as the raved oak aged versions annually sold out within minutes. These small batches are layered on oak used previously for wines, cognacs, whiskeys, etc. The fuse of tastes is absolutely phenomenal. Visiting the section where the beer ages on barrels adds to the experience of visiting the cellar where Grand Prestiges of all years are aging. Places and bottles can be reserved and once aged 5-6 years can be collected at the brewery. The experience is great and very personal, as are the tours at the brewery.

National Park de Meinweg

Reviewed By MLoeys - Knokke-Heist, Belgium

Thanks to our stay in Roermond we discovered this beautiful nature reserve. Highly recommended for cyclists and hikers. Certain zones are quiet zones and therefore forbidden for cars, motorcycles and mopeds. Very well signposted paths for cyclists and hikers.
