드리멜렌 최고의 러닝 경로

2025 and still easily doable by road bike (if not too wet)!

I always take a garbage bag with me, you can sit on a tree stump (too much is still being sawn down). If you don't find a bench, your clothes will stay dry and clean.

nice walk and a little snow

It might be slippery

The construction you see here is called the Kleine Schans. It consists of a star-shaped rampart structure surrounded by a moat filled with water. This is a former military stronghold from 1639 intended to control and protect shipping on the Mark. Originally, there were also several military buildings present. Terheijden was located in the middle of the front line during the Eighty Years' War (1568-1648). Terheijden was an important stronghold to defend the city of Breda. A belt of military fortifications was built around Breda. On the other side of Terheijden lies the Grote Schans or Spinolaschans. This fort is also open to the public, but is not included in this Heritage Walk. The Kleine Schans fell into disuse in 1680 and the buildings were demolished. In 1830, King William I put the fort back into use as a stronghold against the possible arrival of the Belgians and French during the Belgian Revolt. After a thorough restoration in the 1980s, the canals were restored and the water returned. The Kleine Schans is part of the Zuiderwaterlinie, a military defense system from the 17th and 18th centuries. The line ran from Sluis in Zeeland to Nijmegen.

The current shape of the harbour was created in 1952, as a result of the canalisation of the river Mark. The river Mark now flows to the left of the harbour exit in a straight line to the north. Originally, the river flowed further at the place where the harbour head is now located with the departure point of the bicycle ferry. The harbour of today is therefore in fact a dead river arm.

De Kleine Schans in Terheijden was built in 1639 to protect shipping on the Mark and the Breda-Moerdijk connection. The polders around the Kleine Schans Terheijden could be flooded. Around 1862, no less than 300 hectares of the village consisted of swamp. Dive into the past: The charming village has a serious war history. The Spanish and the Dutch fought heavy battles at the Kleine Schans in Terheijden. In order to stop the advancing enemy, they repeatedly flooded the polders around the many redoubts and lines (the Spinolaschans, the Linie Munnikenhof and the Linie Den Hout). After the Eighty Years' War, the Kleine Schans was removed, only to rise again in 1830 as a stronghold against the Belgians. Are you curious about the stories of De Kleine Schans?
