갈데르세 메렌 최고의 사이클링 경로

이 역사적인 수문 앞에서 잠시 멈추어 과거를 회상하기 좋은 곳입니다. 즉, 스파냐르드가트라는 이름이 브레다의 토르프쉬프(Turfschip van Breda) 계략을 가리키는 80년 전쟁 시대로 말입니다.

Beautiful cycle path in a quiet area, along the meandering Mark.

The Laermolen is an undershot watermill located on the Mark River on Molenstraat between Hoogstraten and Minderhout. The first mention of the mill dates back to 1405, but it is likely older. It was formerly a double mill: a corn mill, later a bark mill on the left bank, and an oil mill on the right bank. The oil mill was shut down in 1860, and the rest of the mill in 1913, because the owners had sold the dam rights. After 1918, the bark mill was demolished, leaving only the remains of the oil mill and the lock floor. Since 1995, the non-profit organization De Laermolen has campaigned for its restoration. In 2004, the oil mill was put back into operation. The municipality of Hoogstraten purchased the mill in 2005 and granted it a leasehold to the non-profit organization. The mill is now functioning again and is open to the public on the second and fourth Sundays of the month. Every year, "smoutebollen" (Dutch doughnuts) are served, fried in oil produced by the mill.

worth stopping at this restored watermill.

This is a beautiful route that we have done in the sun. There are enough restaurants to have a drink or something to eat along the route.

Chapel Road, from the Laermolen to the Withof

Beautiful estate but the garden can only be visited on weekdays!

Quieter now that there are no cyclists, extra space for walking and running would be great
