History along the Oude IJssel

You cycle quite a few kilometers along the reed-covered banks of the Oude IJssel. A beautiful path where you enjoy views, the rippling water and the tranquility. On the edge of Ulft you can see the factory of the former DRU iron foundry. The monumental buildings serve as a cultural center. A little further on you will pass Huis Landfort, a castle and estate from the fifteenth century. The monumental house was extensively renovated in the eighteenth century. In Emmerich am Rhein you will see the longest suspension bridge (1228 meters) in Germany. You can get a breath of fresh air at the Rijnkade. In the old city center you will see the Saint Aldegundis Church and Saint Martini Church. Just outside Stokkum you drive past Düffels Möll. At Hotel Restaurant De Roode Leeuw it is time for a well-deserved drink and snack.
