The first attraction you encounter is Freymersen Castle. The medieval round brick tower with two floors has been incorporated into the current country house, from 1865. Then you pass the Vlodropper mill from 1875. The turbine in the mill is the only one of its kind. On the same water you will find the Gitstappermolen, a flour mill. The mill runs regularly on a voluntary basis. Hillenraad Castle is a square moated castle that was built in the fourteenth century. The four corner towers dominate the estate and give the graceful building a stately appearance. The complex is surrounded by a moat and admirers will have to view it from a distance: Hillenraad Castle is not open to the public.

Kasteel Freymersen
The original Freymersen Castle was built in the Middle Ages, but only a two-storey round tower remains. The current country house was built in 1865.
Vlodroppermolen
Mills powered by pure natural power from streams and streams. Miller was a widespread profession in earlier times. One of the few machines in ancient times. Often situated in a beautiful landscape with historical features.

Kasteel Hillenraad
One of the most beautiful castles in central Limburg is Castle Hillenraad. A castle, surrounded by moats and a fortress to the outer castle, which is still partially moated. The outer bailey is built on three sides; there is a private chapel in one of the three wings. The outer bailey has a gatehouse, which must be approached over a bridge. The main building has four square towers covered with a kind of helmet crown, which give the castle a charming appearance, which is more reminiscent of a country house than a resilient castle, although it still has that shape.
