Sluis, Zeeland, The Netherlands
Cycling route: 3174752
Provided by: Groots Genieten
This is how you discover Retranchement and Sluis, where you can cycle around the star-shaped fortifications. Put your bike aside for a moment and walk into the town to soak up the atmosphere, there is a very Burgundian atmosphere. Also get off at the nature reserve Het Zwin, right on the border between the Netherlands and Belgium! During the Second World War, a large cross stood on the church tower in Groede: this was a Red Cross village during the Battle of the Scheldt, or an'open village\\\'. The warring parties received their wounded here. As a result, it was not bombed and was beautifully preserved. Now it looks like a French village square with all those terraces!
