Van Gogh NP walking route Zundert

This very varied walking route (8 km) takes you through Vincent's birth village of Zundert. You walk past six Van Gogh Monuments, past the heritage, past the places from his youth and through the landscape with winding streams that was so close to his heart. Open your senses and experience the origins of Van Gogh's personality and artistry. Places that he remembered with nostalgia later in his life.

Walk through Vincent's place of family life and inspiration

Welcome to Zundert, Vincent van Gogh's birthplace. From his birthplace you walk past places from his youth. Surprising, intimate places. Where the artist walked as a child with his parents, brothers and sisters. Where he played with all kinds of animals and made drawings of them. Where he fantasized and dreamed. About later, what he would become. But you also come to places where there were still extensive rye fields in Van Gogh's time, and where a new, park-like landscape is now blossoming. Where the street names recall Van Gogh's sketches and paintings. How nice is that!
