매우 아름다운 주변 환경과 훌륭한 레스토랑

You can enjoy delicious food at Grachthaus, Kruittorenstraat 1 in Bredevoort. From here you have a beautiful view of the Great Canal and Vestingpark. In summer, you can sit outside on the terrace and soak up the sun.

The large moat is a former defensive ditch in the northwest of the town of Bredevoort. Its shape still clearly reveals the course of the former ramparts and the Treurniet and Vreesniet bastions. Today, the Vestingpark is a picturesque park with paths, a bridge, old trees, a teahouse, a grotto, and a tree trail. In 1784, the former administrator, Bernard Andreas Roelvink, leased the remains of two bastions (Vreesniet and Treurniet) and the land between them (the present-day fortress park and orchard). Around 1850, he had an English garden laid out there, bordered to the northwest by the large moat.

The market square is enclosed by the street 't Zand. The weekly market takes place there every Friday from 8 a.m. to noon. Public benches around the square invite visitors to rest and linger. To the southwest is the boutique hotel, lounge bar, and bistro 'de Heerlyckheid', to the northeast the 'Stadtbrauerei de Borghman' brewery, and to the southwest the 'Bertram' restaurant. In summer, the area is also used for outdoor dining, where one can sit comfortably in the shade of the trees and enjoy a drink, coffee, cake, or a meal. The street 'Markt' and the town center with the Sint-Joriskerk church lead directly to the market square.

CATHOLIC PREVIOUS CHURCH: The castle chapel served as the place of worship for the small Catholic community until 1316, when the first Catholic church was built outside the castle. The foundations suggest that it served as the castle chapel before becoming the main church. This was the predecessor of the present-day Sint-Joriskerk, which was elevated to parish church status in 1535. It was dedicated to Saint George and owes its name to the patron saint of the Vogt of Bredevoort, Saint George, who slew the dragon. During the Eighty Years' War, the original Catholic church was largely destroyed and burned down in 1597 (during the siege by Prince Maurice). The tower and vaults collapsed, but parts of the walls remained standing. The Reformation began with a devastated church! From 1597 onward, Roman Catholic residents in the Netherlands were no longer permitted to hold religious services. From 1675 onwards, they used the Chapel of the Cross, located just across the border on German soil. It had been built by the Bishop of Münster, Bernhard von Galen, specifically for the Catholics of Aalten and Bredevoort. In a book, "Aalten en Bredevoort in vervlogen tijden" by B.D. Rots, it states: "When they (the Catholics) went to church at the Chapel of the Cross, they had to take shovels and spades with them to avoid any trouble. The women had to hide the gold cross they wore on Sundays, otherwise they risked having it torn off. The Catholics from Bredevoort reached the Chapel of the Cross via the church path through the Witte Veen."

During the siege by Prince Maurice in 1597, the old church was largely destroyed. The tower and the vault collapsed, but parts of the walls remained standing. SINT-JORISKERK: As early as 1599, just two years after the plundering, destruction, and siege of the town, construction began on a new church building for the Dutch Reformed congregation on this site. It was built in the Gothic style, and the oak timber roof truss replaced the destroyed vault. In 1639, the church was enlarged by moving the north facade several meters. Wooden posts were placed at the original location of this facade, creating a north aisle. The church was severely damaged in the explosion of the powder tower in 1646. Further renovations and extensions took place in 1834 and 1858. The complete restoration was referred to as a "reconstruction." In 1869, the exterior walls were plastered, and this layer was removed in 1949. During this period, the church underwent another comprehensive restoration. A complete restoration was carried out in 1967. The Sint-Joriskerk is located in the historic center of Bredevoort! It is a national monument and is a protected historical site. ... FEATURES: The Sint-Joriskerk houses a beautiful Rococo pulpit dating from 1762. Old inscriptions (from 1301?) can be found on the beams beneath the so-called "peasant's attic." The figure of St. George slaying the dragon serves as a weather vane on the tower and has been reattached to the church roof. (Source: Information panels at the church)
