The driveway to Terborgh Castle leads visitors along a stately path into the Geleenbeek Valley. Flanked by tall trees and bordered by greenery, the avenue emphasizes the historic allure of the castle that has dominated the valley since the Middle Ages. As the cobblestones or gravel crunch underfoot or underfoot, the silhouette of the castle and its outbuildings unfolds at the end of the avenue. The driveway not only provides access to the castle but also an atmospheric transition from the village and countryside to the tranquil world around Terborgh.

Text board: In het TROOR van de BOKKERIJDERS Terborgh Castle Terborgh Castle, probably one of the oldest castle grounds in the province of Limburg, formed one of the new centres of power in the region from the Eleventh Century onwards. The lordship of Schingen had the high jurisdiction and therefore handled criminal cases itself. The court of aldermen was located in the castle, where a large number of gang members were interrogated, tortured and sentenced. The castle dungeons, where the accomplices of the Gangs of the Bokkerijders were locked up, are still located to the right under the entrance gate. Due to a lack of sufficient prison space, Joannes Catsbergh jr., alias Henske va Nagelbeck, was locked up in the great hall of the castle. Despite the heavy block on his body, he managed to move to the adjacent chapel and walked on ecclesiastical immunity, hoping to escape death in this way. However, this immunity was not granted to him. On January 28, 1751, Geerlingh Daniëls from Wolfhagen died here in the castle dungeon, regarded by the judiciary as one of the leaders of the gangs during the first and second periods.

Wassenberg was first mentioned in a document in the “Klosterrather Annals” (Annales Rodenses). Klosterrath is today's Rolduc near Herzogenrath. In 1020, Emperor Henry II (1002 - 1024) gave the Flemish nobleman Gerhard von Antoing rich land holdings in Wassenberg in return for services rendered. After the expansion of the motte (original castle), his descendants called themselves “Count of Wassenberg”. Count Gerhard III of Wassenberg and Geldern is also considered the founder of the Wassenberg St. George's Abbey and the builder of the St. George's Provost Church. The founding document from September 30, 1118 is still preserved in an older copy. The abbey and church helped determine the fate of the town for centuries.

City with keep

During the Eighty Years' War, the original village of Stevensweert was expanded into a fortified town by the Spanish in 1633. An earthen wall with seven bastions and five ravelins was built. Part of Stevensweert is under town protection. The fortifications can still be seen in the city's unique street pattern. Be sure to take a look at the Stevensweert-Ohé en laak regional museum. In 2007, the reconstruction of a small part of the fortifications began based on historical maps of a bastion, a rave line and the associated north side of Stevensweert.

Today's Stevensweert arose in the early Middle Ages on an island in the Meuse, with the eastern branch being the Old Meuse. This domain initially belonged to the County of Loon and since 1243 to the Oberg. From 1253 it belonged to the Ambt Montfort. In 1543 Obergelre came to the Habsburg Monarchy and thus became Spanish Obergelr. The late Gothic sculptor Jan van Steffeswert was probably born here at the end of the 15th century. The original village was converted into a fortress town in 1633 by the Spanish general Francisco de Moncada. An earthen wall with seven bastions and five rave lines was built around the place. In 1702, Stevensweert was besieged by the states, causing severe damage to the castle and the fortress becoming state property. From 1716 Stevensweert finally came into state hands and belonged to Staatsober-Gelre. Stevensweert has retained its heptagonal perimeter and geometric street pattern to this day. The original fortification wall was destroyed in 1874. In 1882 the island bridge was built over the Oude Maas, connecting the island to the mainland. In 1922 the Roermond - Sittard tram line was completed and Stevensweert received a tram stop. Five trams ran in both directions every day and a journey to Roermond station took 24 minutes. In 1937 the tram line was broken up and bus services took over passenger transport. With the construction of the Juliana Canal (1925-1934), Stevensweert was again on an elongated island, which was only connected to the shore by a few bridges and therefore always still had a more or less isolated situation. After the Second World War, gravel extraction was added, which created a number of puddles. In 2007, the reconstruction of a small part of the fortifications began based on historical maps of a bastion, a rave line and the associated north side of Stevensweert.

The fortified town of Stevensweert has everything to be counted among the most beautiful villages in Limburg: history, beauty, atmosphere and located in a beautiful part of the Netherlands. The biggest attraction of Stevensweert is the village center itself. This is one of the most picturesque villages you will find in Limburg. Specific buildings worth mentioning are the former town hall, which now houses the Streekmuseum Stevensweert/Ohé en Laak, the eighteenth-century St. Stephen's Church and the striking former Reformed Church. This monumental building now serves as a wedding location and a place where events are organized, such as concerts.

The Wassenberg town hall is a reconstruction of the town hall from 1902, which was severely damaged in the war, and whose forms are based on the previous building from 1753. The town hall follows the old tradition of the Wassenberg town hall, but in the redesign of the post-war period it occupies the space of the former town hall and two adjoining houses and is thus closed as a four-winged complex around an inner courtyard, which has a gallery on the first floor.

In 1020, Emperor Henry II gave the castle and land of Wassenberg to Gerardus von Antoing, who from now on called himself Gerhard Graf von Wassenberg and thus founded the Count House of Wassenberg. The next four generations of lords at Wassenberg Castle were able to expand their territory to form the county of Geldern, from which the duchies of Jülich, Kleve and Berg ultimately emerged. However, Wassenberg Castle has existed for much longer; the previous building was probably a Roman fortification. Wassenberg Castle is one of only three hilltop castles on the Lower Rhine, alongside Kleve and Liedberg. After the participation of Count Gerhard III. von Wassenberg during the Crusades founded a collegiate church in Wassenberg in 1118.[3] St. George's Basilica was completed in the same year (the nave of which was demolished after damage in the Second World War and replaced by a new building) and inaugurated on September 30, 1118 by Bishop Otbert of Liège. In 1131, Jutta von Wassenberg, Gerhard's sister, married Walram von Limburg and thus brought Wassenberg into Limburg. Since the family line of the Counts of Wassenberg now continues the Countship of Geldern, in 1202 the son of Duke Henry of Limburg, who inherits the castle and land of Wassenberg, can only call himself “Lord” of Wassenberg. At the “Imperial Battle” listed below, Henry III was. Ally of Otto IV and had to cede Wassenberg after the lost battle. Wassenberg received city rights as early as 1273, which were confirmed in the municipal reorganization in 1972. Source and further information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassenberg
