Hidden behind Theater Spant! in Bussum lies Fort Werk IV, a unique cultural heritage site from 1868 and part of the New Dutch Waterline. This fort is the only remaining of the original five works and is distinguished by its dry moat and crenellated wall with embrasures. Inside, you'll find casemates—bomb-proof rooms where soldiers stayed—and a long poterne, a corridor that once provided unseen access to the other side of the fort.
Today, Fort Werk IV is a vibrant venue for cultural and culinary events, managed by Fier Bussum. Whether you're interested in history, architecture, or simply looking for a unique spot to relax during your cycling trip, this fort offers a special experience.
