The Oosterschenge is now a relatively small, tranquil waterway, but that used to be different. It used to be an inlet, important for shipping. But in the 18th century, part of the channel was reclaimed. This 'residual channel,' the Oosterschenge, remained. Long ago, the Schenge, a wide channel that separated the island of Wolphaartsdijk from Zuid-Beveland, flowed here. Ships used this route to and from Goes. It was therefore an important waterway for trade and transport in the region. But as is often the case in Zeeland, the landscape slowly changed. Due to siltation, the water became increasingly shallow, making it more difficult for ships to navigate. In the eighteenth century, it was therefore decided to reclaim part of the inlet. This created new agricultural land. In 1809, the diking of the Wilhelminapolder was completed. With this, a large part of the old inlet disappeared behind the dikes. What remained was a wide residual channel: the Oosterschenge.

The Petruskerk is a church of the Protestant Church of the Netherlands in 's-Heer Arendskerke in the province of Zeeland, the tower of which is owned by the municipality of Goes. The church building and the tower are each a national monument. A church was probably founded on the site of the current church in the twelfth century by "Lord Arend", also known as "Arend met den belly". This was the ancestor of noble families in this part of Zeeland. The current church dates from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The tower and choir were then built separately and connected by the nave, the current church, which is said to date from around 1450. The nave was dedicated to Saint Peter, which is reflected in the name Petruskerk. At the end of the sixteenth century, during the iconoclasm, altars and statues were removed from the church and the church was converted into a Protestant church. The choir dedicated to John was demolished in 1859. A consistory room was built on site. In 1906 the church was restored by Jan Verheul and returned as much as possible to its sixteenth-century state. Restorations followed in 1955-1956 and 2002-2003. Source Wikipedia

The church has a heavy two-tiered tower with right-angled buttresses. This dates from the first half of the 15th century and probably remained unfinished. In 1805, another octagonal lantern was placed on top. The bell dates from 1578 and was cast by Adriaen Steylaert. In 1805, a hall church was also built onto the tower. This has neo-Gothic cast iron windows. The pulpit dates from approximately 1650. The organ dates from 1912 and was built by the Standaart company. Source Wikipedia

The church tower of the Protestant Church, nicknamed the Peperbus, dates from the 15th century. The church building was built in 1807, after the old church was demolished due to dilapidation. The consistory was put into use in 1870. Source: Wikipedia

Not only tree courses (climbing) but also all kinds of water sports. Nice terrace on the edge of the Veerse Meer.

I found quite a few broken glass bottles on the cycling path, watch out for your tyres

Especially for wheelchair users this fishing dock was created. A very nice place on a side arm of the Veersen sea.
