City walk through the old centre of Zierikzee

Discover Zierikzee on a walk through a city with more than 550 monuments and a history that goes back to the early Middle Ages. You will walk through streets where trade, shipping and power came together for centuries, visible in city gates, warehouses and the proud Dikke Toren.

Enjoy the atmosphere around the old harbour, the Nobelpoort, the Town Hall, and the centuries‑old merchant’s house De Haene. Along the way you will hear stories of struggle, resilience and prosperity — from the battle of 1304 to the reconstruction after the flood of 1953. Let yourself be carried through a city that has lived with water, history and craftsmanship for centuries.

Arriving by car? Follow the parking route to one of the official parking areas. The best place to park is P3 - Scheldestraat. From here it is less than a five‑minute walk to the first point of interest, the Sint‑Lievensmonstertoren.

Coming by bicycle? Park it in the bicycle racks on Kerkplein.
