Doesburg was a settlement on river dunes that became a flourishing Hanseatic city and garrison town. Today, it’s also
known as the mustard city. But, Doesburg has so much more to offer. In the medieval streets lined with beautiful
buildings, you can feel the atmosphere of times past. Climb to the top of the 15th-century Martini Church for a panoramic
view of Doesburg and the IJssel. On another corner is the City Beer House De Waag, the oldest bar in the Netherlands.
Hanseatic merchants met there to do business. Those times have passed, and the merchant’s shouts have
disappeared. Nowadays, Doesburg is a quiet provincial city, which still holds many secrets in its monumental buildings.
For several years now Doesburg has featured a modern walkway along the IJssel.



This is why Doesburg is worth a visit for groups:
