De Valk Tours and Activities

Once full of cattle and sheep for sale, this pretty square overlooking a canal is now the starting point for canal boat cruises and a great spot for morning coffee.

Investigate a wealth of cultural heritage from every continent and learn about the traditions, art and religions that make human culture so diverse.

The classical building by the canal is where merchants once sent their goods to be weighed before market. These days it’s a music venue and gallery.

The past comes alive at Lieden’s National Museum of Antiquities, where you’ll explore cultures of the ancient Egyptians, the Romans, Greeks, Syrians and Persians.

Step back through history to the medieval times of cut-throat deceptions and power politics when you visit this hilltop castle that overlooks the Rhine.

You can study the exhibits at Molenmuseum de Valk, a museum with a storied past, during your holiday in Leiden. Discover the fascinating museums in this culturally rich area or seek out the local tours.
