Post mill Heusden

Highlight • Monument

On the ramparts of Heusden, on the side of the Bergsche Maas, there are a total of three mills. In times of siege, the mills ensured that the city was self-sufficient. Every year on National Mill Day, the mills turn and millers tell more about this craft. The mills can be visited all year round by appointment.

Haarsteegse Wiel

Highlight • Lake

The Haarsteegse Wiel is a wheel located northwest of Haarsteeg. It is almost 20 meters deep, making it the deepest wheel in the Netherlands.

The wheel was created in 1610 when the water was pushed up by an ice dam in the Maas and the dike gave way. This formed the southern basin. The northern basin was created during a second flood in 1740.

Studying the sediment in the wheel not only allowed for its age to be determined, but also identified events such as past and historically known floods. In addition, change in human activity could also be observed by elemental and isotope analysis. These included the intensification of livestock farming after 1880, the arrival of tanneries and dairies, the atomic bomb tests and the Chernobyl disaster. Pollen analysis revealed phenomena such as the agricultural crisis of 1875, the development and cessation of hemp cultivation in the 19th century, the planting of pines and poplars, the development and cessation of buckwheat cultivation, and the emergence of silage maize around 1970. Study of the fossil diatoms yielded knowledge about the development of water quality, which, partly due to the use of fertilizers, has become and still is richer in nutrients.

October 30, 2022,Vestingstad Heusden Runde von Minicamping Weideblik 🇳🇱

Today we started our second cycle tour from the "Weideblik" campsite. It went through the "Nationaal Park Loonse en Drunense Duinen" and then around Drunen to the "Bergsche Maas". We followed it a bit to the picturesque fortified town of Heusden. It presented itself from its best side in bright sunshine. On the way back to the campsite we got …
