The story

Story · Genneperhuis

  • en
  • nl

You're standing at the Genneperhuis, where the river Niers flows into the Maas, close to the town of Gennep. Have a look around. There's no castle left to see. What you can see are moats, raised ground and the outlines of old fortifications. Together they show just how big this stronghold once was.
