Tour of Gorssel and Joppe

Your route starts at Family Restaurant De Zessprong. In Gorssel you can visit Museum MORE: the largest museum for Dutch Modern Realism. The Noorsche Huis in Gorssel is one of the few remaining prefab homes in the Norwegian dragon style in the Netherlands. The decorations on the roof and on the facade in the shape of dragon heads and tails refer to Viking ships. The Huzarenlaan that you encounter refers to a special history. A hussar is a lightly armed horseman in various European armies. Hussars originally came from Hungary, where they fought against the Turks. The 4th Regiment of Hussars (soldiers on horseback or on bicycles) had to slow down the German advance in 1940, so that there was time to prepare the main defense in the Grebbe Line.
