Domburg is the oldest coastal town in Zeeland. The clean and wide beach is a wonderful place to get a breath of fresh air.
December 17, 2020
In the region of today's Domburg there was a Roman temple dedicated to the goddess Nehalennia until it was flooded in the 3rd century AD. In 1223 the small town received city rights. The village behind the dunes is one of the first Dutch seaside resorts. As early as the 17th century, those seeking peace and quiet came from the surrounding area, for example from Middelburg. From 1834 Domburg officially called itself a seaside resort. The village achieved real fame when nobles from half of Europe were treated by the physiotherapist Johann Mezger.
This call continues to this day and not only attracts those seeking relaxation but also the hip party people in midsummer.

Domburg gained its city rights in 1223. The city has been officially designated as a seaside resort since 1834, making it the oldest seaside resort in Zeeland, but bathing tourism already existed before (Wikipedia).
