Fortress town on the Waal with green ramparts and a church tower as beacon

Zaltbommel was once the controller among the fortress towns. Today its ramparts are a landscape park, St Martin’s church rises as a beacon above the flat land and the narrow streets hold restaurants that like to welcome a group. From the quay you look straight across at Loevestein Castle.
