Mount Saint Peter

in limburg •  7 years ago 

So I rarely something private on steemit, but it was long due for a weekend off for me.
And I have some nice pictures to share I took on Sint Peterusmountain, a hill on the border of Belgium and Limburg (the Netherlands)

Anyhow From Wikipedia :
Mount Saint Peter (French: Montagne Saint-Pierre; Dutch: Sint-Pietersberg), also referred to as Caestert Plateau, is the northern part of a plateau running north to south between the valleys of the river Geer to the west, and the Meuse to the east. It runs from Maastricht in the Netherlands, through Riemst in Belgian Limburg almost to the city of Liège in Belgium, thus defining the topography of this border area between Flanders, Wallonia and the Netherlands. The name of the hill, as well as the nearby village and church of Sint Pieter and the fortress of Sint Pieter, refers to Saint Peter, one of the Twelve Apostles.


the South of the Netherlands is a catholic area. You can find traces of it all over the area and it's history. Limburg is a small province that is in between Germany and the Netherlands it has a small Jewish community in Maastricht as well.


The enci factory is currently the exploiter of the area. They gather stone for buildings.


You can walk in between the area they will be working untill 2018
