Gulpen Marketsquare

Highlight • Cafe

Gulpen Market is right on the Gulp. The flair at the creek was beautifully designed by the surrounding gastronomy and the creek design.

Laschet Tunnel cutting

Highlight • Structure

The southern head of the tunnel was blown up on August 3, 1914 by the Belgian army to prevent the passage of the Germans with their material. This was done to protect the fortresses near Liège, but the last fortresses fell on August 16, 1914. On May 10, 1940, the Belgian army mined the tunnel again and large parts of it fell. In 1941, the Germans replaced the tunnel with an open trench with a bridge, which lasted until 1952.

Beware of tastes

Highlight • Historical Site

The old train station seems to have been preserved to some extent, but the parked train carriages and the old car have seen better days. I especially feel sorry for the car.
