Holiday in Oostkapelle
Oostkapelle owes its name to a chapel that must have stood here in earlier times, together with another chapel, which stood where the current Westkapelle is located. As a fortified town, Oostkapelle's western sister developed better in the Middle Ages than Oostkapelle, which remained a farming village until the twentieth century.
After the Second World War, however, the place developed into a seaside resort in the wake of Domburg and Zoutelande. Just like Domburg, Oostkapelle borders on a wide strip of land with dunes and forests, called De Manteling. It also includes the 12th century Kasteel Westhove and the museum for nature and landscape of Zeeland, Terra Maris.
