이 가마는 제1차 세계 대전 중 석회석 부족으로 외국 수입품이 부족했을 때 만들어졌습니다. Limburg의 지역 기업가들은 현지에서 석회석을 건축 모르타르, 석고 및 건축용 생석회(CaO)로 구웠습니다. 이는 900–1200°C의 간단한 공정입니다. (시멘트: 클링커 형성을 위해 >1400°C의 회전 가마가 필요합니다). 오늘날, 폐허가 된 가마는 Curfsgroeve 기슭에 있는 산업 기념물이며 Mergel의 역사 일부입니다.

The Basilica of Meerssen, officially the Basilica of the Holy Sacrament and the Apostle Bartholomew, is a historically and religiously significant church building located on the Markt square in the central village of Meerssen. It is an impressive example of Maas Gothic architecture and is considered one of the most important churches of this style in the Netherlands. The basilica's history goes back a long way. As early as the beginning of the Middle Ages (around the 8th/9th century), a Palatine chapel stood on this site. This chapel was later expanded into a larger Romanesque church, possibly due to the influence of princely occupation at the time. In the 14th century, the church was further expanded into a Gothic cruciform basilica with a robust nave, choir, and large tower, features that still dominate the building today. In 1938, Pope Pius XI elevated the church to a minor basilica, an honorary title indicating the building's special significance for the Catholic Church and pilgrims. The basilica is best known for two legendary events that made Meerssen a place of pilgrimage for centuries. In 1222, the so-called Miracle of the Blood took place here. During a Eucharist celebration, the priest forgot to put water and wine in the chalice, and after prayer, water and blood flowed from the host when it was broken, an event that attracted thousands of pilgrims. Later, in 1465, a second miracle was commemorated when a farmer rescued the monstrance from a burning church and, upon returning to his field, found it plowed as if by angels. This, too, was seen as a sign of divine protection and was commemorated annually. Architecturally, the basilica combines Gothic elements with later extensions and restorations. Around 1936–1938, the west side was enlarged by architect Joseph Cuypers. A special feature of the art treasures are the 20th-century stained-glass windows that add color and atmosphere to the interior. The basilica is part of Meerssen's cultural heritage and has been listed as a national monument since 1967 due to its architectural history and cultural significance. Every year, the basilica still attracts pilgrims and visitors, especially during the Octave of Corpus Christi around Corpus Christi Day, when processions and celebrations take place to commemorate the miracles and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament.

An unusual, beautiful building with many great photo opportunities.

This entire area, from Spaubeek, Genout, Schimmert, to Hulsberg, has a lot of gravel paths. I go there very often and I still discover new trails.

Valkenburg has been one of the Netherlands' most important holiday destinations since around 1840, and tourism is the municipality's main source of income. This has much to do with the medieval town's picturesque location, but the extensive labyrinths of underground quarries also played an important role from the very beginning. However, the original idea of using the caves for air cures never came to fruition.

Info/Source: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sluis_Limmel The Limmel Lock was a lock complex on the Juliana Canal in Maastricht, consisting of two adjacent locks. It was one of the locks along the canal, completed in 1934, which together had to bridge a drop of 23 meters. The Borgharen weir and lock complex lies southwest of the lock in the Meuse River. A new single-chamber lock was built between 2016 and 2018, eliminating the lockage regime. In the future, the lock will close at 1700 m³/s, but with a discharge of 1200 m³/s to 1700 m³/s, lockage will no longer be necessary. Due to the interventions on the Grensmaas, it takes longer for a high water level to reach. The Meuse riverbed has been widened in Itteren, Borgharen, and Geulle, and the banks have also been lowered. This has created more space for the non-navigable section of the Meuse, allowing it to handle higher discharges. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2195707790456196
