Graveのおすすめライド

Beautiful view of the impressive bridge.

Super nice bike path with panoramic views over the Meuse River. There are also many species of grazers here.

The Van Sasse Pumping Station near Grave is a striking waterworks that plays a key role in controlling the waters of the Meuse River. Built at the end of the 19th century, it forms, together with the nearby locks and dikes, an ingenious system that protects the land behind it from high water levels. The pumping station is named after Cornelis van Sasse, a hydraulic engineer involved in the construction of various Meuse-Rhine projects. The robust brick casing with large round arches and iron details reflects the typical industrial architecture of that period. From the walking route, you have a good view of the water inlets, the discharge pipes, and the heavy metal gates. The entire structure demonstrates how important water management has always been here: without these types of installations, the low-lying areas around Grave would be much more vulnerable to flooding. The pumping station is no longer in use, but it remains a recognizable part of the landscape and a tangible reminder of the battle against the water.
