The Schans bij Doeveren is a historic fortification from 1579 that served as a defence point within the Zuiderwaterlinie. Strategically located on the river Maas, this entrenchment offered protection against enemy troops and supported inundation systems. Today, the Schans is a green oasis where history and nature come together harmoniously.

What remains of this entrenchment today is mainly some height difference in the landscape.
