Cities

For a piece of old Dutch culture, make sure to explore Medemblik. Old houses, narrow streets and picturesque facades will transport you back in time for little while. In case you can't get enough of it, pay a visit to Floris the Fifth's castle 'Radboud' with its impressive knights' hall and towers. Make sure not to miss the beautiful museums and monuments either, including the late Gothic church 'De Bonifatius' with its stunning stained glass windows, painted pillars and a unique Pieter Backer organ dating from 1671.

Wonderful relaxation in the peaceful area of the park, catching some fresh air at Lake IJssel and enjoy everything Medemblik has to offer. Still, our bustling capital is not far from the park and offers a great opportunity to include a day visit to Amsterdam in your vacation.

Hoorn is known, both at home and abroad, for its beautiful inner harbor, its pleasant entourage, no fewer than 300 monumental buildings, the beautiful canals, the pleasant shopping streets and the perfect location on the IJsselmeer. The rich Dutch East India Company-related history of the city makes Hoorn a city with a unique identity.
