On top of the ramparts of the fortified city of Heusden you have a beautiful view over the Brabant and Gelderland landscape, the Bergsche Maas and the restored city. Walking through the picturesque streets and narrow alleys you will discover numerous centuries-old, well-preserved buildings and facades with beautiful facing bricks. The fortress therefore has an attractive character.

The fortified town of Heusden was at the forefront for centuries: it developed around one of the oldest water fortresses in northwestern Europe and was one of the first Dutch cities to have a city wall. Much of the old Heusden has been preserved thanks to beautiful restorations. Discover it during a day out in Heusden.
