Peace Temple This Peace Temple was built in 1814 as an expression of joy for the regained freedom after the French period under Napoleon. This temple only survived the explosion during World War II following a failed V2 rocket launch. A new Peace Temple was built at the launch site in 1945 using old materials. Due to its poor condition, this temple was demolished in 1969, but a new temple was built there in 1977. (Text on the sign at the entrance on the IJsselmeer side)

The Mirnserklif on the IJsselmeer is a popular spot for kitesurfers, kite flyers, and beachgoers. The cliff was formed during the penultimate ice age, when shifting ice from Scandinavia shaped the Gaasterland landscape. The Mirnserklif has been a favorite lookout spot for centuries. Until the 1960s, the cliff formed a single entity with the Rijsterbos forest. The wide road constructed at that time bisects the natural monument. To the left of the cliff lies a walking path called "Freuleleantsje," specially constructed for the Lady Van Swinderen, who lived at Slot Rijs at the time. A small dome has been erected there since 2023, and you can also enjoy the view over the water from the pavilion's terrace.

A small pond in the middle of the forest. There's a bench on one side for a quick rest. A bridge crosses the pond. A very beautiful, unexpected place.
