What to do and see in Limburg Province, The Netherlands: The Best Historic Walking Areas

November 20, 2021 Jacquiline Delozier

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.

Kasteeltuinen Arcen

Reviewed By theleedsgirl - Leeds, United Kingdom

Kasteeltuinen has vast, beautiful gardens to explore. There are rose gardens, tropical gardens, Japanese gardens, bamboo, Italian and the list goes on. All are delicately manicured and well kept. There is a huge crazy golf course that is included in the entrance fee. Lots of lakes and waterfalls too. We stayed about 3 hours and didn't see everything because the site is massive. We visited the house too. The interior was disappointing. We also fed some goats, chickens and Koi Carp. This is a place to visit on a dry day as 90 percent is outside. Kids go free in July and August, which is always a bonus! You can get cheaper tickets sometimes on Social Deal or the ANWB members' site. I plan to return to see the parts that I did not get to see.

Na een korte bovengrondse rondwandeling over en door het hoge front en krijgt u een indruk hoe een dergelijk defensiesysteem er na ca. 250 jaar ongewijzigd uitziet. Vervolgens gaan we ondergronds en nemen u mee naar de mijngangen, luistergangen, communicatiekoepels en caponnières. Deze rondleiding is elke zaterdagochtend om 10.30 uur. Reserveren via de website.

8. Sittard. Genieten Voorop

Kerkepad, 6137 AC Sittard The Netherlands https://www.facebook.com/sittardgenietenvoorop

That Sittard has much more to offer than shopping is certainly proven by the 24 unique city gardens with a special story. The Schootsvelden tells the story of war and destruction, but also of peace and reconstruction. You can visit the Secret Gardens for free every first Saturday of the month. Discover beautiful city canals, ancient allotments and mysterious monasteries and cemeteries!
