The most beautiful hamlets of Kinrooi
Part of the province of Limburg, Kinrooi is made up of 5 magnificent villages that are well worth a visit for their heritage. Molenbeersel, Geistingen, Ophoven, Kessenich and Kinrooi will take you back to a bygone era with their beautiful architecture that will appeal to lovers of old buildings. Northwest of Kessenich, one willingly lingers in front of Borgitter Castle. On a detour, one is quickly seized by Slichtenhof farm, standing in the village of Molenbeersel. It is an elongated farm described in a document dating from the 16th century. Along the Meuse, you can set foot in Kessenich, one of the 5 oldest boroughs of Kinrooi. Budding historians will unearth the remains of a medieval and prehistoric civilization to the south and west of the village. The municipality is also home to Roman catacombs and an ancient Roman road connecting the municipalities of Nimègue and Maastricht.
And let's not forget the mills that blend completely into the Belgian landscape, three of which stand out: Lemmensmolen, Zorgvlietmolen and Keijersmolen. After all, it is not without reason that the region is nicknamed the Land of Mills. Hydraulic or on the wind, the mills are the vestiges of the agricultural past of the Weert region. Together with the municipalities of Bree, Hamont, Maaseik and Bocholt, Kinrooi form the Kempenbroek, where there are 6 hydraulic mills and 19 windmills.
Behind the scenes of nature
Nature lovers will also enjoy sailing to the municipality of Kinrooi. With its large green spaces, the town is ideal for beautiful walks, bike rides or boat trips. GrensPark Kempen-Broek, which extends over the municipalities of Bree, Weert and Kinrooi, is one of the must-see natural sites in the Kinrooi area, with its mosaic of landscapes alternating between marshes, peat bogs, heaths, river valleys and green meadows. It is also the most peaceful place in the province of Limburg, where you can admire the butterflies and the most beautiful dragonflies in the Benelux. Beavers, buzzards and egrets share the green spaces around Kessenich, while in Koningssteen-Kollegreend, you can be quickly surprised by bats.
