Canoe rentals

Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk
Built in the Brabantine Gothic style in the 15th and 16th centuries, the church dedicated to Our Lady, as Virgin Mary is most often referred to in the Netherlands, boasts a tower of almost 100 m and one of the largest organs in the country. Inside you will find the Prinsenkapel, where members of the Orange-Nassau family had been buried until the city of Breda fell to the Spanish.
St. Anthony of Padua Cathedral
Nestled in a side street incidentally named after Saint John, the cathedral church of the long-standing diocese of Breda is much less imposing than the Grote Kerk, but quite unique in that it is a 19th-century creation built in neoclassical style, both inside and out, which is a relative rarity as far as cathedrals go, especially in the Netherlands.
