Villages and cities
Tubbergen
Tubbergen lies in the Northeast of Twente. Its a quiet, agricultural and full of nature area bordering to Germany. Enjoy the rural churchvillages, rye fields and century-old oaks. Famous is the “Kroezeboom” at the Fleringer Es, an oak that has seen more than 500 years of history. There is a chapel near it where services were held in secrecy.
The village offers a lively main street where you can get your daily groceries.
Have a look at the St. Pancratius basilica, which has famous stained glass painted windows made by the 5 generations of the Nicolas family.
At the top of the Tubbergse Es you will find a triple lifesize statue of Mgr. H.J.A. Schaepman. This historical figure, priest, politician and poet is born in Tubberen. His house of birth, “de Eeshof”, an 18th century Manor is now a home for the elderly.

The town centre looks protected and defendend and there are lots of historical buildings as well. Main attractions are the “Westfaalse Hallenkerk” and the city hall.
