Cycle route - Meerssen - Along the South Limburg basilicas

South Limburg has a rich religious history. You don't have to search long for religious heritage.

Extra special are the basilicas: churches that have received an honorary title because of their special past or function. This pilgrimage tour takes you past the Basilica of Meerssen and other special religious heritage, including the Reformed Church in Urmond located along the Meuse. You also cycle along the cobbled streets of Elsloo, it seems as if time has stood still here!

Are the doors of the basilica or churches closed? Don't worry! Scan the QR code on the sign of the church and take a look inside with the 360-degree tour or listen to the special stories of the free audio tour.
