| Vakantie in Nederland aan het IJsselmeer 18 km vanaf Medemblik. |
Medemblik is West-Friesland's smallest and oldest town. When you walk through Medemblik's century-old centre you can still see the culture and appearance of the Golden Century. The still excisting castle Radboud was built in 1288 by its ruler. This to keep the people of West-Friesland in lane. Fortunately the castle can still be visited. The beautiful West-Friesland is undeniably connected with its rich past. The small monumental town-centre is a gem in architecture. One day the towns along the shores of the Zuiderzee were the proud and mighty trading centres of the VOC (Unified East-India Company). Nowadays history and pleasure meet in harmony.
OOld-fashioned rest and space you'll still find in the countryside of West-Friesland. With its rustic farms and windmills, outstretched land and orchards and the Omring dyke. West-Friesland in North-Holland heart and soul and you can feel that on every square metre. Steamlovers can't miss the steamengine train from Hoorn to Medemblik. Including a visit to the Dutch Steamengine-museum in Medemblik.
