The name of the place is derived from the fact that the canal to which the town owes its name, was located at right angles to the Jan Hozengracht, Cornelisgracht, Bouwersgracht and Thijssengracht. Just like in Giethoorn, there is ribbon development along a canal, in this case the Dwarsgracht. The place was founded before 1800 at the time of peat extraction in the area from the town of Giethoorn. (source: Wikipedia)

Dwarsgracht, very small district of Greithoorn, but with significantly fewer tourists.
