The artwork on the roundabout of the N259 consists of three silhouettes of striking buildings in Steenbergen; such as the Gummarus Church, the Reformed Church and the Water Tower. The foundation piles of the artwork form a vault in which the DNA of the city will be stored for fifty years. The idea is that it will be opened during the celebration of 800 years of Steenbergen. LuxImprove, together with artist Hans Hanssen and steelsmith Peter van Meel, has managed to create a beautiful end result, which comes to life during the evening hours.

The Barend is the confluence of the Potmarkreek and the Molenkreek. Together, these bodies of water are silent witnesses of the historical 'Oude Prinslandse Polder'. The initiator of the reclamation was Philip William of Orange in his function as Lord of Steenbergen. The reason was that several gorzen had already been reclaimed in the area since 1548 and that the accretions in this area were also ripe for reclamation.

The Steenbergsche Vliet is a nature reserve that mainly consists of reed marshes. The area is now again in open connection with the Volkerak, after the opening of the lock complex at Benedensas. The nature reserve is a paradise for water birds and an ideal spawning ground for fish, including carp and pike-perch. Since the nineties, the area has become a paradise for (water) recreation.

History From 1627 to 1816, Fort Henricus protected the fortified town of Steenbergen (North Brabant). Stadtholder Frederik Hendrik, son of William of Orange, was the builder of this fort in the West Brabant Waterline and Southern Waterline (which lay between Bergen op Zoom and Grave). In 1628, the line was flooded for the first time. This is called inundation. Along the edges of the Steenbergse Vliet, the tides had free rein thanks to an open connection with the sea. Cannons were ready on the fort to repel the enemy. Thanks to the success of the line, it never got that far. In recent years, we have restored Fort Henricus with its five bastions. It looks as much as possible like it did in the seventeenth century. Source: https://www.natuurmonumenten.nl/natuurgebieden/fort-henricus

Fort Henricus was recently renovated, so that hikers and water sports enthusiasts can browse and relax to their heart's content. Climb the lookout tower at the entrance to the fort and enjoy the view of the most beautiful spot on the Vliet! A plaything between the Spanish troops and the Dutch, that was Steenbergen. Time and again, the fortified town was conquered and plundered. Until 1627, because from then on Fort Henricus in Steenbergen protected the harbour and the lock. That lock was important for the inundation. The hornworks, bastions and moat of Fort Henricus made Steenbergen an impregnable fortress. In 1809, Napoleon prepared his cannons for the last time, out of fear of a British invasion. Fort Henricus was demolished shortly afterwards. Source: https://forten.nl/forten/fort-henricus

The Gummarus Church is a church with an eventful history. Let's go back in time. The history of this parish, just like the city, spans many centuries. For example, in the first half of the 13th century there was a church in Steenbergen. Before 1460, that old church was replaced by a new one, dedicated to Saint James. This church stood on the site where the Reformed Church now stands. Although the current Saint Gummarus Church was put into use in 1902, the church has a history that goes back to the late 13th century, when the first church in Steenbergen was founded. This early church, of which no images are known, was replaced around 1505-1510 by a long Gothic cruciform church dedicated to James the Greater, the Saint James Church. During the Eighty Years' War, the Saint James Church was disfigured and used as a storage facility. Want to know more?

Construction of the church began in 1831, but was not completed until 1903, when it became the church it is today. It is an iconic, oriented neo-Gothic church with a high crossing tower (height 78 m). The current St. Gummarus Church replaced a church from the early nineteenth century that had become too small. The church is one of the most important later works in the oeuvre of Dr. P.J.H. Cuypers, although the design was modified and carried out by his son Joseph Cuypers (1861 - 1949) and Jan Stuyt (1868 - 1934). The church was severely damaged by war in 1944. Restoration followed in 1949, the tower was rebuilt in 1960. Source: https://www.visitbrabant.com/nl/locaties/2517536205/gummaruskerk-1
