In the southern part of the Netherlands lies a small town that is known as Valkenburg. Rich in history, Valkenburg’s story is traced back to the 13th century. Remnants of this period still stand. Monuments like the Valkenburg Castle, a fascinating landmark in the area, are found here. Ravaged by the vagaries of time, this castle’s ruins are what’s left of the once majestic building. The town is peppered with numerous other historic sites that have defied the centuries. For instance, there’s the 13th-century built Hoensbroek Castle and the Roman Catacombs. Valkenburg is also endowed with a scenic landscape. Made up of rolling hills and rivers like the Geul, nature is at its best here.
