A beautiful natural walking path that runs around the fortified town. Be careful if your dog does not get along with other dogs because many dogs run loose here.

Welcome to the marinas of Willemstad. You can choose from Marina De Battery, a modern marina with 215 spacious berths a stone's throw from the historic and attractive fortress, or the pleasant city harbor with over 300 berths next to and in the fortress of Willemstad. Both ports have a Blue Flag!

Willemstad Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

The Old Town Hall is a building in Renaissance style and was built in 1587.
Prince Maurits originally wanted a church and a town hall to be built in the young village. Due to the war situation, there was no money for this. So a kind of multifunctional town hall was designed in which church services could also be held and which was equipped with a tower with a bell.
In 1620, the - until then simple - building was embellished with a Flemish facade, designed by Frans Leenwijnsse. A few dormer windows were added to the new roof and the attic was used as a storage place for tools of war, such as halberds and the like. The coats of arms in the facade were also removed in 1798, to be replaced in 1937.

Koepel Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The Koepelkerk is located in the centre of the fortified city of Willemstad. This church from 1607 was built with financial support from Prince Maurits and is the first church in the Netherlands that was built specifically for Protestant worship.

The church was built in an octagonal shape (central construction) entirely in accordance with Prince Maurits' wishes. The church was built without a wreath of chapels and aisles. Not the altar, but the pulpit had to form the centre. The church is a model for many later Protestant churches.

Over the years, the Koepelkerk has been rebuilt and restored. During the opening hours, visitors can learn about the history of the church using panels and texts and climb the tower. The hostesses and hosts present will also be happy to tell you about the church. The Friends of the Koepelkerk Foundation regularly organises exhibitions in the tower that can be viewed during a visit to the Koepelkerk. The location is accessible for wheelchair or mobility scooter users.

The Land Gate, Willemstad

Highlight • Historical Site

The current guardhouse at the Landpoort was built in 1953. The original guardhouse was so badly damaged during the Second World War that it was demolished in 1951.

The original guardhouse at the Landpoort dates from 1760 and had a floor and a waiting corridor with two arches. The building housed the engineering office. The current guardhouse was rebuilt in the same style and has since been the base of the Willemstad fire brigade.

March 7, 2024,Verhaal van Nederland - Het Pad van Oranje / Willemstad

This walk through the idyllic Brabant fortified town of Willemstad covers five centuries of Orange history. We start in the harbour. The Hollands Diep river will be forever connected to the Oranjes due to Friso's drowning. Walking over dikes and bastions, we discover how the town got its name and what role Prince Maurits played in it.
