Cruise offers to the port Grinchem / Netherlands
The former fortifications restored in 2001 with the Dalemer Gate are worth a stroll. The city museum is located in the former town hall, built in 1860. The old town is still home to some old houses. The landscape around Gorinchem is very picturesque, which is why, especially in the early summer, a bike ride in the surrounding area is offered.
