Middelburg Essentials

Middelburgs historisches Zentrum ist geprägt von seinem architektonischen Erbe aus dem niederländischen Goldenen Zeitalter. Die Skyline wird vom 90,5 Meter hohen Turm Lange Jan dominiert, der Teil eines weitläufigen mittelalterlichen Klosterkomplexes ist, in dem sich auch die Nieuwe Kerk und die Koorkerk befinden. Der bürgerliche Stolz der Stadt spiegelt sich im spätgotischen Rathaus am Marktplatz wider, während die erhaltene Koepoort aus dem 18. Jahrhundert und die Seismolen-Windmühle entlang der Festungsanlagen Einblicke in das frühere Verteidigungsnetz und die industrielle Vergangenheit der Stadt bieten.
