After Wachtendonk I wanted to do something small afterwards.
My choice was Kempen.
Very cute little town.
Also very nice houses and the core is almost car-free.
There were very beautiful figures and also beautiful fountains to see. Unfortunately, the fountain was no longer running or running at all.
Perfect for an appetizer.
