Hulst, Medieval fortified town in Zeelandic Flanders, Netherlands.
The municipality of Hulst features preserved city walls, 68 historical buildings, and a prominent basilica dedicated to Saint Willibrordus at its center.
Dutch forces under Prince Frederick Henry captured Hulst in 1645 during the Eighty Years' War, securing control over the left bank of the Schelde river.
The bronze statue of Reynard the Fox near the Gentse Poort gate represents the local literary heritage and medieval folklore traditions.
The municipality encompasses fifteen distinct urban centers, including Clinge, Graauw, Heikant, and Kloosterzande, with a total population of 27,330 residents.
The Verdronken Land van Saeftinghe nature reserve near Hulst contains Europe's largest salt marsh ecosystem, shaped by tidal movements.
