Gorinchem Canals

Highlight • River

Vesting Gorinchem is a real attraction with its city walls, impressive cannons and windmills. But above all it is very pleasant in the city center with the many terraces on the Oude Markt. You can enjoy hiking and cycling in the area. With the ferry service you can make a round along the entire Fortress Triangle.

Nooit Volmaakt Mill

Highlight • Monument

The mill is included in the city walk on the fortifications and can be visited free of charge. A donation is appreciated. It is more fun to buy flour (in all kinds) or a local product. You can climb to the top of the mill over steep stairs. Old utensils are displayed on every floor.
