This walk takes you through De Marne, a historic region in the northwest of Groningen. You walk through a beautiful old polder land that was partly shaped by the hard work of the people of Groningen in their fight against the sea. The sea may have been tamed, but in this open landscape the wind still has free rein, so you can enjoy a breath of fresh air. The tranquility of the polder and the rhythm of your steps are the ideal recipe to clear your head completely. This way you pay more attention to the rich history that can be found in this area. In Ulrum, for example, you walk through the park where the Asingaborg stood on a mound from 1500 to 1809. On the other wierde in this town is a twelfth-century church. You will also pass through Panser, a hamlet consisting of two old farmhouses. On the wierde in Niekerk you walk past a thirteenth-century church that was restored in the seventeenth century with proceeds from the silver fleet.
