On the other side cycle route | Liberation Route Brabant

A unique cycling route of 59 kilometers connects two remarkable locations: the German War Cemetery in Ysselsteyn in Limburg and the War Museum in Overloon in Brabant. This route is special, not only because of the beautiful rural environment you cycle through, but especially because of the confrontation with the tensions of the Second World War. During the journey you are regularly confronted with contradictions such as'Allied\\\' versus'German\\\','right\\\' versus'wrong\\\', and especially'life\\\' versus'death\\\'. This has led to the name of this cycle tour:"On the other side\\\".

The Liberation Route Brabant tells the story of the liberation, but also shows what the Second World War meant for ordinary Brabant residents. Eight cycling routes, spread across North Brabant, lead you past Brabant Remembert stories, listening columns of the Liberation Route Europe, monuments and museums, which together make visible the impact of the war on North Brabant.
