In the Frisian village of Spanga stands a monumental building. The current Spanga Bell Tower was installed in the Spanga cemetery in 1989. After construction, there was no money left to purchase a bell. You can read below about how this happened.

The De Rietvink windmill, built in 1855 on the Grote Veenpolder, was fitted with an American windmill in 1921 to keep the area dry. After being decommissioned in 1964, it became a holiday home. Around 2005, the windmill fell into disrepair, but new owners began a thorough restoration in 2008 with the help of millwrights and volunteers. In 2010, De Rietvink turned again for the first time in 16 years and has been in regular operation ever since. Next to the windmill is a charming tea garden with a terrace for a refreshing drink in the sun!

The second-largest dolmen in the Netherlands can be found in Havelte. Dolmen D53 is the only dolmen damaged during the war. The German air force wanted to build an airfield at this location, so the stones were moved. The airfield was bombed to pieces, and the dolmen was excavated and reassembled. The dolmen is approximately 18 meters long, almost complete, and lies on the edge of a heathland. Along with dolmens D54 and D52, it is one of the few in this part of Drenthe. Dolmen D54 is slightly smaller than D53. It lies in the middle of a small sandy plain surrounded by grass. It is a beautiful walking area around these dolmens, as the small sandy plain is surrounded by heathland, small forests, and meadows. Dolmen D53 and D54 are a must-see on your dolmen tour because they are complete, well-maintained, and impressive. If you're coming from Havelte, you can follow the main road, which will take you past a side road. If you take this, the dolmen is almost immediately on your left. Continue driving a little further, and you'll find dolmen D54. Source: https://www.drenthe.nl/locaties/1800662783/hunebed-d53-en-d54-1

A great route through the countryside. Strong winds are to be expected, though.

Dolmen D53 is the third largest dolmen in the Netherlands, measuring about 18 meters long. The dolmen is almost complete and is beautifully situated on the edge of the heath. However, it was taken apart by the German air force during the Second World War to make room for an airfield. Fortunately, there were drawings and the dolmen was reassembled after the war. D53 is located next to the smaller dolmen D54.
