Heritage
Quintessentially Groningen
For centuries, the people of Groningen have gone their own way. That independent spirit has shaped the landscape. We built an impregnable fortress in the middle of the marshes, mounds of earth on fertile salt marshes, sturdy churches and opulent borgen. The area is brimming with places that tell a story of days gone by. And there’s always a lovely route to follow, even without a map or sat-nav. You’re in Groningen, after all.
