Located at the southern tip of the Netherlands, the lively university town of Maastricht perfectly combines great medieval architecture with a trendy modern atmosphere.

History buffs will enjoy the well-preserved Historic Old Town complete with cobbled streets, the Gothic Sint Janskerk (climb the prominent red tower for wonderful views), and the Romanesque Basilica of St. Servatius. At the opposite end of the style spectrum, the futuristic Bonnefanten Art Museum is a treat for all art enthusiasts. Other highlights of the town include St. Peter's Fortress and St. Peter's Caves, the Casemates of Maastricht (a network of defensive underground tunnels), and the Bisschopsmolen, the oldest working windmill in Holland.
