View from the Vrijheidsbos

Highlight • Forest

The Vrijheidsbos Brielle contains approximately 530 trees that have been planted to commemorate or commemorate something. Every tree in the Vrijheidsbos has its own story. To make these stories more widely accessible, the board has had a website developed.

Walking through the forest, or at home behind the laptop, you can view the histories behind the tree through their owners. Names and dates on signs near planted trees also offer just as many places for your own thoughts and memories. Hundreds of people, young and old, have made the freedom forest what it is today with their own motives to plant; a monument in the landscape. The proceeds of the sold trees were transferred to the restoration fund of the Brielse Synagoge foundation. Panels of brass have been placed between the trees, on which poems have been placed that relate to freedom or the lack of it. Near the pool there is a gazebo where you can take shelter in case of rain or where you can contemplate the origin of the forest for a moment.

Kaaipoort Brielle

Highlight • Monument

The Kaaipoort on the east side of the Brielse fortress was built in 1709 and last restored in the period 1972-75. Considerably more of this gate had been preserved than of the Langepoort on the NW side. In particular, the front on the field side with two pilasters and a bluestone entablature and attic was still almost completely present. During the restoration, two bluestone balls were placed on the attic. The brickwork of the gate arch is striking, where the arch back does not run parallel to the round inner vault, but steeply upwards. The Kaaipoort has retained its guardhouse, which is now a residential building.

Brielle City Walls

Highlight • Historical Site

Brielle still has its ramparts. The shape is a design by the fortress builder Willem Paen, who worked for the States of Holland. Little has changed in the fortress since 1713, making the Brielle defenses one of the most important remaining fortifications in the Netherlands.
