    You have arrived at the northernmost point of the Netherlands! The imposing work of art 'The Gate of Heaven' marks the precise spot. From here you have an unobstructed view of the water and the endless sky above the Wadden Sea. Next to it is a bench to rest. Enjoy the view.

    The two and a half meter high work of art "De Hemelpoort" marks at this point the most northerly point of the Netherlands.

    Noordkaap is the northernmost point of the mainland of the Netherlands. Artwork 'De Hemelpoort' marks the exact spot. From here you have an unobstructed view of the water and the infinite sky above the Wadden.
