TRAVEL GUIDE
What to do in Kerkrade?
During your stay in Kerkrade, you can go back in the history of Limburg by visiting the famous abbey of Rolduc. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is one of the most prestigious religious monuments in the Netherlands and the largest abbey complex in Benelux. To learn more about the region's mining past, open the door to the Discovery Center Continium. On site, you can participate in simulation workshops to project yourself into the world of robots or explore the human body. You will also discover a 3D cinema, transporting you from the Big Bang to future times. To fill up on oxygen, don’t hesitate to head out onto the Chemin des Ducs de Limbourg. A hike not be missed from Kerkrade to Limburg, punctuated by ten stages, among which are Eupen, Vaals and the Valley of the Worm in Germany. At twenty minutes by road or train from our hotel, you can also visit Maastricht, one of the largest cities in the province.
Unmissable events in the Kerkrade region
A stone’s throw from our luxury hotel in Kerkrade and its Golden Tulip restaurant, one of the most important musical events in the Netherlands is held every four years. It’s the WMC (Wereld Muziek Concours or World Music Contest), an international music competition attracting more than 20,000 musicians from 30 different countries. Entirely dedicated to wind instruments, this competition welcomed some 650,000 visitors during its 18th edition in July 2017. During this event, the streets of the city are taken over by brass bands, wind orchestras and percussion ensembles. Other highlights of the festive calendar of Kerkrade, the “three crazy days” of carnival and the traditional “KloneTrekke” (gathering of clowns) of Mardi Gras are an ideal opportunity to discover the city, its market and the cultural riches of the province of Limburg.
