Description

The tiny Spanish Toll House was once the entrance gate to a sturdy fort. This guarded the old lock of Plassendale. Guard room for Spanish soldiers; residence of the commander; toll booth; inn; House of the Sas Masters; A last port of call for old bargemen: the small monument on the waterfront has a lot to tell you. It will be a resting point for cyclists, hikers, boatmen, big and small adventurers. Four hundred years of locks, forts, cannon roar, shipping, residents and their stories will be given a place on the water. The restoration started in August 2018 and will take a total of five years. In the meantime, you can sit on a large garden terrace or explore along the canal with a kayak.
