Fulco

Highlight • Monument

The city's esteem symbol is Fulk the Minstrel. It is a distinctive symbol of our city. A replica has been made of the sculpture on the Overtoom.

By awarding the Fulco de Minstrel, the mayor and aldermen express the feelings of pride and appreciation for fellow citizens who have made a contribution to the city and society of IJsselstein in a broad area, or on one subject. By awarding the Fulco de Minstrel, the council underlines the significance of the ambassadorial function of people who deliver an appealing performance in the general, sports and cultural fields, as well as of companies, institutions, associations and organizations, in radiating activities, performances and presentations. .

Kromme IJssel

Highlight (Segment) • River

The Kromme IJssel is a short river in the Dutch province of Utrecht. It has a total length of 2.75 km and falls within the water board De Stichtse Rijnlanden.

The Kromme IJssel starts in Nieuwegein and is a branch of the Hollandse IJssel, where it takes a sharp turn to the north at the Doorslag. The first part flows along the IJsselbos, then it goes under the A2 and curves around the Het Klaphek area, before the river continues to flow as the Enge IJssel.

The Green Heart

Highlight • Natural

Vast meadows, peat bogs, beautiful ponds, lakes and rivers, historic villages and towns, fortresses and farms. That is the Green Heart of Holland! The Green Heart is the green oasis that surrounds the Randstad conurbations. In addition to the green landscape, the Groene Hart has much more to offer. From active outings to relaxing and unique hotspots. Stroll through the historic fortified town of Woerden, visit the one and only wedding town of Montfoort or experience the picturesque and oldest town of the Green Heart, Oudewater. Experience the history in Vrijstad Vianen (with more than 190 national monuments) and visit the Glass City of the Netherlands, Leerdam. Meet each other in IJsselstein and imagine yourself in the Middle Ages. A wonderful area for a day out, weekend away or a complete holiday.

March 11, 2023,IJsselbos – IJssel Rondje vanuit IJsselstein

Nice walk. 95% hardened. The route starts from the center. Please note this is all paid parking. From IJsselstein into the countryside. This is a beautiful and bird-rich area. Then into the forest which is also very nice. This is a dog walking area. The entire route is allowed for dogs. After the walk we got a cup of coffee …
