Walking stage 11: Lith - Megen | Southern Waterline

Megen, located in the municipality of Oss, is the smallest fortified town on the Zuiderwaterlinie. Although it is a picturesque place today, it has not always been that way. When visiting Megen, you really walk in the footsteps of the past, because the medieval street plan is still intact. During this stage, you will explore Megen and pass sights such as the Castle of Ooijen, the Clarissenklooster St. Josephsberg and the Gevangentoren in Megen.
