Hiking

Zuidpoort provides access to the city from the direction of Aardenburg. Until 1399 there was a gate built of wood here, after which it was replaced by the current construction. This new gate was finished in 1406 and was much larger than it is now. The superstructure was demolished during the adaptation of the defenses around the city in the 17th century. Via a wooden bridge you can cross the ring canal here and reach the footpath.
