Doesburg
A small Hanseatic town at the southern end of the IJssel, with a Gothic town hall, St. Martin's Church and a traditional mustard workshop.
Doesburg is the southernmost of the Hanseatic towns along the IJssel. Its old town is small but preserves one of the Netherlands' oldest town halls (14th century), the tall St. Martin's Church and numerous historic merchant houses. The Doesburg Mustard Workshop still makes mustard with traditional stone mills, and visitors can tour it and buy products. Small ferries run from the IJssel quay beside the old town. It is about 40 km from Deventer and can be combined with Bronkhorst and Zutphen into a one-day cycling or driving route.
