Roermond City Centre

Roermond is ideal for a shopping or city stroll. But there are also many beautiful places along the Meuse, some of which are not so crowded.

On days when there is the weekly market, it might be a bit crowded. Nevertheless, a visit is worthwhile every day and in every season. The old houses around the market square form a beautiful backdrop.

View of the Roermond skyline and the Maas River

Highlight • Viewpoint

When driving in the direction of Roermond, you can see the "skyline" of Roermond very nicely before the hustle and bustle begins. If possible, you should probably not drive here on Saturdays.
