Wierdense Veld
WieZo festival
Twentekanaal
The Wierdense Veld nature reserve on one side, the Twentekanaal on the other: that is how most people know Wierden. Between the two, this Twente village has been a resting place for travellers since the Middle Ages, when the great roads from Deventer and Zwolle to Germany ran through it.
Back then, a wide lake an hour's walk across lay between Wierden and Almelo, and the only way over was by boat until a dike was built. The church went up on the dike, and the village followed. Ask anyone from here what they remember, and it is often midsummer: the three days of the WieZo festival, with music every night on the Binnenhof. Or the little weaver's cottage in the old centre, and the old farmsteads of the Loo. Wagenmakerij Langenhof keeps the memory of a village craft, and Het Lageveld offers a green place to walk.
Nearby villages like Enter, Hoge Hexel and Notter belong to the same municipality, but Wierden itself is the one people mean when they say they are heading home.
