Bruchtor City Gate

Highlight • Monument

The almost 800-year-old city wall testifies that Gangelt was an important place in the Middle Ages, which had to be protected by a fortification. On a tour you can still see the remains of walls, gates, alleys and towers impressively. Access to the city was through 4 tower gates. Heinsberger Tor and Bruchtor have survived to this day.

Pine Lake

Highlight • Lake

In the 20th century, clay and gravel were mined in the Teverener Heide. And this has created the many bodies of water. More than 200 endangered animal and plant species in North Rhine-Westphalia find a home in the Teverener Heide.

Highland cattle pasture at the Rodebach

Highlight • Natural

The Roode Beek, also Rode Beek (German: Rodebach or Rothenbach), is a stream in the Dutch-German border area. It is a tributary of the Geleenbeek and flows through the German Kreis Heinsberg and the Dutch province of Limburg. The stream has two upper courses: a right upper course that rises near Siepenbusch, a village in the German municipality of Übach-Palenberg, and a left upper course that rises in the Brunssummerheide nature reserve, southeast of Brunssum. Both branches merge at Mindergangelt and then continue as one stream that flows into the Geleenbeek at Dieteren. The Roode Beek has a number of small side streams, including the flooded stream that used to flow through the center of Brunssum, the Merkelbekerbeek (Merkelbeek) and the Ruischerbeekje. In several places the stream forms the national border between the Netherlands and Germany. The area of the Roode Beek forms, in addition to that of the Geul and the Geleenbeek, one of the three most important stream valleys of South Limburg.
