The van Delden Group was a textile company based in Gronau and was one of the largest textile companies in Europe in the 1970s. As a result of the general crisis in the German textile industry, the company had to file for bankruptcy in 1982 and was wound up. The impressive buildings have been partially restored as technical monuments.

A monument of Gronau's textile history. Interesting figures climb around on it. Worth seeing.

The water tower of the former Matthieu van Deldes weaving mill has been preserved as a technical monument. The artist Caius J. Spillner created a total of six sculptures for the 2003 State Garden Show. These were installed on the steel supporting structure of the disused water tank and, thanks to the help of several sponsors, became municipal property in 2010.
