Exterior stop
At the starting point of the route you will discover some historic buildings. You see a farm dating from 1870. The Eexterhalte is also a national monument. This former station building was once located on the Assen-Stadskanaal railway line, which was managed by the Noordoosterlokaalspoorweg-Maatschappij. The station was built in 1923 and closed again in 1947. Just a stone's throw away you can admire even more cultural history: dolmen D14 is located here.
