The current Laarbrug is an iron bridge on a concrete base and was placed in September 1947. Previously, there was a high concrete bridge, built in 1932, which was blown up on May 11, 1940, when the Dutch army retreated. The Wilhelminakanaal is the first Dutch canal named after a queen and dates from the beginning of the last century. Construction began in 1910 and in 1923 the entire Wilhelminakanaal was opened for shipping.

Special castle in a place where you don't expect it. Suddenly it stands there majestically in the meadows!
