The shopping city of Zeeland

A whole day of shopping, discovering the historic city center, extensive dining, what more could you want during a day out? And let Goes, a pleasant town in Zeeland, is exactly the destination for this. Curious? We list our tips for you!

1. The port of Goes

Goes was once an important trading town and although the harbor is not so big now, it is still fun to stroll along the harbor and canal. Here you can enjoy the view of the yachts and historic ships or settle down on a terrace to enjoy Zeeland's hospitality.

2. Historic center

Goes has a small historic center with old streets, canals and beautiful facades. The city has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages, and this is clearly visible in the buildings and monuments. For example, visit the Mary Magdalene Church, an imposing Gothic church that has its origins in the 15th century, or plan a visit to the Zeeuws Museum. Here you will find a collection of archaeological finds and modern art.

3. Markets, events and local eateries

Goes offers a wonderful mix of culture, conviviality and good food! Visit the weekly markets on the Grote Markt for fresh produce and unique finds, or discover the atmospheric flea markets where you can score second-hand goods and antiques. For culinary delights, enjoy local cuisine at popular restaurants such as De Kluizenaer or Bodega de Kookclub. And don't miss Goese Week, the vibrant annual festival full of music, art and local events that transforms the city into a lively celebration!
