The station building that stands there today was built in 1914 and designed by George Willem van Heukelom. It is a brick building with an octagonal tower topped by a spire bearing the city's coat of arms.

Lock 17 Lozen is a lock numbered 17, located at kilometer marker 44.90 of the Zuid Willemsvaart canal. The lock is located near the town of Loozen, in the province of Limburg, in the Flemish region of Belgium. The lock complex consists of a lock, a movable bridge, a hydroelectric power plant, and a feed culvert. The lock has a drawbridge, but this is not located over the lock chamber, but just over the lower head, just outside the lower gate.

This reconstruction of the 'Death Wire' gives an excellent impression of the impact of this German barrier during WWI on the area and its inhabitants. Along this reconstruction are information boards that provide walkers with additional information about the original construction in 1916, the many escape methods that were attempted from Belgium to the Netherlands, but also the dramatic stories that took place at the wire.

When the border treaty between Belgium and the Netherlands was signed in 1843, it was decided to place 388 border posts, numbered from 1 to 364. At some points where the Maas forms the border, there are two posts, one on the Dutch side and one on the Belgian side. Later, extra posts were placed at the end, because a piece of land, and therefore a piece of border, was added due to land reclamation. In the meantime, some posts have also been lost and here and there an extra one has been added. There are probably now just over 400. The posts are made of cast iron and weigh 372 kilograms. Each post is provided with the Belgian Lion on the Belgian side and the Dutch Lion with sword and arrows on the other side. And each post has a number. The numbers run from border post number 1 at the Drielandenpunt in Vaals, to 369 in Zeeuws Vlaanderen. The year 1843 is on almost all posts.
