Description

Nearly five hundred old monuments adorn the city center of Bergen op Zoom. For that reason, the center is a protected cityscape and there is always something to see in this beautiful city. Beautiful churches, a beautiful harbor area and numerous cozy terraces where you can enjoy a refreshing drink in the sun after a bike ride. You park your car in the parking lot on the edge of the stand and cycle to the first attraction: Fort Roovere.

Fort Roovere is an earthen fort that was part of the West Brabant water line. The fort is surrounded by beautiful trees and a dry moat. In 1747 the defenses were besieged by the French until the fortress of Bergen op Zoom fell and could be captured. The fort was renovated in mid-2010. Most of the vegetation was removed and the old canals were deepened. This made the fort a lot more recognizable and gave it a better appearance.

When you continue the cycle tour, you will see the De Arend mill in Wouw. This belt mill was built in 1811 as a flour mill. The mill burned down in 1825, but was restored that same year. De Arend had become dilapidated in various respects by mid-2010. That is why repairs to the mill started at the end of 2012. In March 2013, the mill was operated again for the first time and the mill can be visited, usually on Monday or Tuesday. A telephone appointment is recommended.
