Bergen op Zoom is a city in province of North Brabant in the south of the Netherlands. It lies close to the border with Belgium and is about 25 kms north of the city of Antwerp. The main A58- E312 highway bypasses the town. The old fortified city of Bergen op Zoom developed along the banks of the river Schelde and was a remarkable natural defensive site, surrounded by marshes and easily-floodable polders. During the 17th century three forts were built surrounding the city and a canalized diversion of the Scheldt acted as a ditch around its walls. The fortifications were dismantled in 1867, and the town was occupied by the Germans during World War II. Buildings of interest still stand, such as The Markiezenhof Palace, built in the 15th and 16th centuries, housing a cultural centre and a museum with a picturesque courtyard, paintings, period rooms, and temporary exhibitions.

Places to visit in Noord-Brabant

Noord-Brabant

North Brabant is a large province of the Netherlands, located in the south of the country, bordered by Belgium in the south, the Meuse River in the north, Limburg in the east and Zeeland in the west, centrally positioned between the port cities of Rotterdam and Antwerp and the German Ruhr area. Its capital is ’s Hertogenbosch. North Brabant is mostly flat, but nearly every part of it is above sea level, therefore there are not as many canals as in the lower parts of The Netherlands. While most of the population lives in urban areas, the province is scattered with villages and most of the land is cultivated. Forests, heathlands and dune areas can be found, where cycling and walking are popular. There are theme parks at Safari Beekse Bergen or Speelland, Efteling theme park, full of breathtaking attractions, fairy tales, natural beauty and spectacular shows, and nature parks like the Loonse and Drunense Duinen, Kampina or the Oisterwijkse woods and Fens.
