Steam pumping station De Tuut in Appeltern is an industrial monument from 1918, the only working steam pumping station of this type in Gelderland. The pumping station was an important weapon in the fight against water and has made part of the growth and prosperity of the Land van Maas and Waal possible.
Hernen Castle
Hernen Castle is located in the village of Hernen, in the Land van Maas en Waal. Hernen Castle has never been destroyed, unlike many other castles in the Netherlands. It has also never undergone major renovation, giving you a good impression of what a medieval castle really looked like.
Batenburg Ruins
Ruin Batenburg was once one of the most important castles in the province. In 1974 it was largely destroyed by French troops. The flora and fauna in the area make this place very special. Near the ruins are a duck decoy, mill and a beautiful flood plain.
