Jacobus de Meerderekerk

This historic, brick mansion still boasts lovely gardens, moats and promenades. It's one of the best examples of its kind in the country and gives a great insight in the life of the inhabitants of a Groningen 'borg' in the 18th century.

Relatively large polder windmill, used for drainage of reclaimed land. The traditional windmill is surrounded by a large number of huge modern wind turbines.

11th-century church with a Romanesque style clock tower that is leaning more than the tower of Pisa.

Windmill 'De Vier Winden' (The Four Winds) is an old windmill that can still be used, built in 1864.

The Seal Rehabilitation and Research Centre is the main attraction in Pieterburen. It has a small visitors centre and of course you can watch the seals that reside there. This is a rescue centre, not a zoo, so the number of seals varies.

14th-century 'borg' (manor house) with large gardens with a carriage house, a farmhouse, and a garden shed. The borg houses a museum decorated in 19th-century style, and various expositions and events are organised throughout the year.
