Thorn, the White Town in central Limburg

As the capital of a small principality for over 800 years, and now a protected townscape dotted with monuments, Thorn has a lot to offer anyone wanting to explore! It is a historic centre with picturesque white houses and numerous authentic buildings dating back to the 15th and 18th centuries, as well as winding streets paved with original Maas cobblestones, floor mosaics and medieval features.

In order to really get to know Thorn, you can book a tour from a professional guide from Toertje Thorn. For more information, visit their website: www.toertjethorn.nl
