Description
A sea wall in Hooge Zwaluwe? Of course! You will discover that this is not as crazy as it sounds with this fun walking route. Hooge Zwaluwe also turns out to be a beautiful old town!
St. Elisabeth's Flood
In Made you will pass the Hoop Doet Leven, a flour mill from 1867. Then you will walk along a remnant of a creek that was created by the Sint-Elisabeth flood of 1421: the natural Zwaluwse Haven, in Hooge Zwaluwe. It is therefore not surprising that this road is called'Zeedijk\\\'! The soil here near the Amer consists mainly of marine clay.
Hooge Zwaluwe
Hooge Zwaluwe is a beautiful old town. You soon leave the village, but it is worthwhile to continue walking to the Protestant church that you can easily see. This was designed by Jacob van Campen, who also designed the Mauritshuis and Huis ten Bosch in The Hague. The ground plan forms a cross with equal arms. An open wooden tower or'bellefroy\\\' crowns the building, a stone spiral staircase leads up to it.
