About Maastricht

Maastricht is a southern Dutch city on the River Maas, with Roman roots, cobbled squares, a bookshop in a church and a Burgundian love of food and wine.

Maastricht is the capital of Limburg, set on the River Maas in the far south of the Netherlands, almost surrounded by Belgium and close to Germany. It began as a Roman crossing of the river, and the Sint Servaasbrug still crosses the river at the old crossing. The Vrijthof, a large square, is flanked by the Romanesque basilica of St Servatius and the red tower of St John's church, and the Helpoort is among the oldest town gates in the Netherlands.
