Fort Hedikhuizen
This fort is still part of the fortifications of Heusden and was used to protect the inundation lock. This lock made it possible to allow water to flow from the Maas in a controlled manner. Heusden was thus defended by the flooded land. Until 1952 the fort at Heusden was used as a fortification and was known militarily as "The work behind the Hoogen Maasdijk". The lock and fort now form a local and ecological connection zone for animals.

Het roze kasteel d' Oultremont
Independently fortified building from the Middle Ages that was easily defended at the time and was mostly inhabited by the noble families of the Netherlands in the past
