Beveren

Beveren extends across 150 square kilometers of land, incorporating eight distinct towns including Beveren, Doel, Haasdonk, Kallo, Kieldrecht, Melsele, Verrebroek and Vrasene.

The territory experienced substantial modifications during the 16th century when a devastating tide in 1570 led authorities to dismantle dams for protecting Antwerp.

The municipality maintains traditional celebrations featuring giant puppets during local festivities, with the earliest puppet collection dating from 1954.

Transportation within Beveren includes multiple bus services connecting to major cities, with the N70 Motorway providing direct access to surrounding urban centers.

The Castle of Cortewalle, constructed in the 15th century, stands as a testament to medieval architecture with its preserved stone walls and historical furnishings.
