The Sint-Jansgeleen estate, located in the Geleenbeek valley near Spaubeek, is one of the most beautiful cultural and historical sites in South Limburg. Once a large castle complex, today the restored watermill, the castle farm, and the 18th-century castle chapel are the most visible. The estate is nestled in a green stream valley with mature trees, open meadows, and the babbling Geleenbeek stream. Hikers will find a combination of tranquility, nature, and history: from the medieval foundations of the now-defunct castle to the picturesque views over the valley. It is a place where centuries-old culture and Limburg nature seamlessly intertwine.
