Starting point: The junction route can be started at any junction.
Zierikzee
With more than 500 national monuments, Zierikzee has a lot to offer. The Dikke Toren (officially the Sint Lievensmonstertoren) stands out from afar. It should have been much higher, but this is high enough for a climb. The beautiful golden Neptune waves his trident on the tower of the former city hall. The tower is richly decorated, while the city hall is a beautiful example of sober Renaissance architecture. The Flemish gables are provided with the medallions of Emperor Charles V and his son Philip II.
Brewershaven
The Brouwershaven town hall is a beautiful example of Flemish Renaissance. The oldest part, the back, dates back to the 15th century.
For a small town, Brouwershaven has an impressive church, the Grote- or Sint Nicolaaskerk. The original church from 1325 has been renovated and expanded for centuries. The result is impressive, as you can see for yourself now.
Renesse
The Gothic Jacobuskerk dates from the 16th century. The main altar was dedicated to James the Greater, the saint of Santiago de Compostella. The Jacobuskerk is included in the almanac of this popular pilgrimage.
Castle Haamsteede
The stone keep (tower) of Haamstede Castle dates from the 13th century and survived a major fire in 1525. The castle was rebuilt while retaining the fortress tower.
Molen de Graanhalm dates from 1847 and is one of the most beautiful and best maintained corn mills in Zeeland. When there is enough wind, the mill grinds grain. You can taste the quality in the pancake restaurant at the mill.
The lookout tower in the Boswachterij Westerschouwen is a nice place to end the tour. You have a beautiful view over the sea, dunes and land.
