Food scene
This is Haiko, Ria and Annely's favourite place to eat Italian food. Their pizza's are as good as in Italy and the nice vibe in the restaurant is perfect for an evening out. Kanneloni is just a 15 minute ride by car and is right over the border in Germany. We recommend to make a booking during the weekends.

The quality of the food at Bakhuys is just amazing! They use local ingredients to create unique and surprising dishes. Ask Haiko for food recommendations as he knows the menu by head ;-)
We recommend to make a reservation up front.

Neighbourhoods
Bourtange is a village with a population of 430 in the municipality of Westerwolde in the Netherlands. It is situated in the region Westerwolde in the east of the province of Groningen near the German border. Fort Bourtange was built in 1593 during the Dutch Revolt and was used until 1851. The star fort was gradually restored to its mid-18th-century state between 1967 and 1992 and it is currently an open-air museum.
Fort Bourtange was initially built during the Eighty Years' War (circa 1568–1648) when William I of Orange wanted to control the only road between Germany and the city of Groningen which was controlled by the Spanish. This road followed a sandy ridge (tange) through the marshes (the Bourtange Swamp).
Later, around 1594, Bourtange became part of the fortifications on the border between the northern provinces (Groningen, Friesland, Drenthe) and Germany.
Bourtange was a separate municipality until 1822, when it was merged with Vlagtwedde.
In 1851 the star fort was given up and Bourtange became a normal village. Around 1960 living conditions in the village deteriorated and it was decided that Bourtange would be rebuilt to its state of 1740-1750. Today it is an open-air museum.

Sightseeing
The monastery is located in the southeast of the province of Groningen on a forested sand ridge along the ancient trade route from Münster to Groningen. For passing travelers and pilgrims, the monastery was a place of hospitality and dedication. Ter Apel is the last monastery founded in Groningen, and of 34 monasteries in the province it is the only one still recognizable as a convent.
