This picturesque town, with its well-preserved ramparts, quaint streets, and stunning riverside views, feels like stepping back in time. Stroll through its historic center, where old merchant houses and the medieval church tell stories of the past.

Walk through its thick stone walls, explore the knight’s hall, and hear the incredible tale of Hugo de Groot’s daring escape in a book chest!

4. Our final stop takes us to Schiedam, home to the world’s tallest traditional windmills.
