The town played a significant role in Dutch history, being one of the first cities liberated by the Watergeuzen in 1572 during the Dutch War of Independence. Brielle’s impressive fortifications have remained unchanged since the early 1700s, making it one of the best-preserved fortified cities in the Netherlands. Brielle is picturesque and ideal for a delightful morning stroll if you’re in the area.
