What an excellent tour in the quaint city of Maastricht. This hour long tour takes you through old…read moremines that span hundreds of kilometers long. Our guide was so knowledgeable & funny with our group. I highly recommend to do this if you find yourself in this lovely city. It is cheap too, maybe 6 euros. There's also a cute restaurant next to the caves, we didn't go there, but if we planned better, we would have. It is a nice view of the city.

The building itself is amazing and I admired it from the outside. I was not game enough to pay €10 or so to get in and have a look around. I am sure it would be very interesting and some would pay to go have a look around. Walk around this town and explore. It's a great city to do it.

A very heartfelt thank you to the men and women who maintain these cemeteries and to the Dutch…read morepeople who adopt individual graves of our fallen heroes. On another cold, very wet day I once again visited. I'll probably have visited 4 to 5 times over the last 15 years on the way or leaving Maastricht where I was attending meetings. Each time I go I see new things and learn new things of the men buried there and the men and women who take care of the Cemetry. It's a beautiful place. If you can watch a uTube video on the history and the symbolism of the monuments and statues prior to going. There's free parking and restrooms available and I recommended you take the time to visit the visitor center and chat with the staff and sign the visitor's log.

My husband was in the Army and is a war vet from Saudi but he was stationed in Germany when he was young and came here years ago .. it was on his short list of to do when we were in the Netherlands. So we rented a car and spent the day getting here and back. He'd remembered it as being bigger but when each of those crosses is a life lost .. I thought it was very humbling. We went in late May one of the first warm days of the year. It's a beautifully kept and we learned that each grave is adopted by a dutch family and theirs a huge waiting list to have that honor .. that is just beautiful. It was a long drive from Amsterdam to get here but glad we came. It's very moving to walk there and see all those white crosses ... heart breaking. Visiting Hours The cemetery is open daily to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., except December 25 and January 1. It is open on host country holidays.

I came here for a wedding reception, and this was a quaint and romantic venue. There's even a small…read moremoat around the castle and a bridge crossing it. The courtyard was made of cobblestone and the green meadow in the background made for a very picturesque scene. One of the large rooms was reserved for dinner and dancing. The room was a pretty decent size holding at least 15 large round tables. There were convenient restrooms and a makeshift coat room. There were actually two wedding receptions happening on the same night, so it's good to know they can accommodate multiple parties. They had a good sound system as the music was blasting! There was also a relatively large parking lot with free parking! They conduct tours (with or without guides) until 5:30pm, but the ticket office closes at 4:30pm. Unfortunately, we arrived after the ticket office had closed. The castle looks like it would be interesting inside, and it would be a quick stopover on the way to somewhere else. Thanks for making the night a charming and memorable wedding reception!

This was a great find. I was looking for things to do in the area and came across this castle…read moreonline and so glad I did. It was wonderful because there was only a few people there and you can basically wander around the castle wherever you want with a book to kind of guide you. There were a couple cool audio rooms that explained more about the castle and lots of fun and games for kids. The castle is very well preserved and I can imagine being even more beautiful in the spring or summer with the mote around it. I had a great stroll around.
