Just across the moat from the bastions, on Utrechtseweg and Molenpad. An area near city walls and forts was kept clear of vegetation and buildings, to give a clear field of fire. Small houses were allowed, but only of wood, so that the garrison could burn them quickly if the enemy approached.

The moat and eastern bastions, Roozenboom and Draaierschans, built 1674, and now a small park. They are left and right at the end of Nieuwstraat.
The circular fort at Ossenmarkt (1861), cross the river Vecht by the wooden bridge. See the online images and panorama. Behind the fort are two older bastions (circa 1674), Bakkerschans and Nieuw Achtkant (with a view of the windmills).
Laurenskerk
A 15th-century church with a bell tower dating back to the 13th century.
The former synagogue was in use from 1840 until 29 April 1942, when the Jews of Weesp were deported.
The fort (1845) was protecting the lock of the old canal to 's-Graveland, where it joins the Vecht. On the right bank of the Vecht, 4 km East of Weesp. The fort was blown up after World War II, and is (partly) being restored. You can walk for free around the ruins.
