    About 400 years ago, things looked very different here. The Rhine didn't run in front of Lobith and Tolkamer, but behind what is now Lobith. If you then walked through the Schipperspoortje, you would enter Lobith Harbor, where dozens of sailing ships were waiting. The skippers came to pay at the Pout, do some shopping, and have a beer. And when they were finished, they continued westward across what is now the Rhine, via Babberich and Oud Zevenaar.

    1. there is no photo (yet) of the stone arch of the Schipperspoort.
    2. Next to the skipper's gate the blue sign. The Schipperspoort is all that remains of the Tolhuys castle, which stood here until the seventeenth century.
    3. To the left behind the gate are three niches in the wall. Two are empty but the third has a ticket.
