Limburg, or East Limburg after the Limburg Charter in which the term Dutch Limburg was abolished, is an important province in the Netherlands with a particularly rich history. Throughout the centuries, much has happened in Limburg and the developments in history have even resulted in the creation of the province itself. Today, Limburg is one of the most important provinces in the Netherlands when it comes to tourism, and it is a region with several unique features that make a visit worthwhile in itself.
In Limburg you can visit the marl caves, book a vacation in one of the many recreational parks, you can visit the beautiful picturesque villages or the big cities. And of course you can have a car window replacement in Limburg by the largest online car window specialist in the Netherlands and Belgium.
The first inhabitants of present-day Limburg were the Neanderthals, who mainly lived in the vicinity of the caves where flint could be found. The oldest traces of habitation in Limburg date back to about 5000 BC. The first time there was any real talk of a province was during the French occupation in which the area was called the Nedermaas. At that time it did not yet have the shape of today's Limburg, but it was the first time the territory was united. It was not until the reign of Willem I that Limburg was actually called Limburg. Only in 1839, after Willem I had long been opposed to the secession of Belgium but was persuaded by the impending specter of revolutions in Europe, was Limburg divided into a Belgian and Dutch part.
In the early 20th century, much later than elsewhere, the exploitation of coal mines got off to a good start in Limburg. This created a huge amount of employment and many Dutch people moved to Limburg to work in the mines. After the Second World War, however, the mines no longer yielded enough profit. Den Uyl decided to close the mines, which immediately led to a sharp increase in unemployment. This was later compensated by the establishment of the CBS in Heerlen and the chemical company DSM that took over the mines. The establishment of the university also provided additional employment, which was particularly desirable.
Limburg is a tourist attraction for several reasons. First of all, it is the only province in the Netherlands that borders two different countries; Germany and Belgium. In addition, there is a lot of green in the province, with beautiful (marl) caves as icing on the cake. It is also the province with numerous rivers, such as the Maas, the Voer, the Worm, the Geul, the Gulp and the Roer. Large cities such as Maastricht, Roermond, Sittard-Geleen and Valkenburg are definitely worth a visit, although most tourists stick to the recreational parks that are often located in wooded areas.
You will find numerous monuments, museums and other attractions in Limburg. A day trip to Limburg is often too short; a weekend in this beautiful province is often a better idea.
If you want to enjoy the beautiful landscapes, visit characteristic villages or visit the big cities on a round trip through Limburg (whether or not including the Belgian part of the province), then the car is a great option. If you follow the A73, you will follow the course of the river Maas, although the N273 can be just as beautiful on the other side of the water. If you plan your trip in advance, you can easily visit all the places you want to see, because the infrastructure here is fine with numerous highways and non-motorways (N-roads).
Are you traveling through Limburg (or do you live in this beautiful province), then it can happen that you get a stone or other object against your windscreen. This is almost never a reason to panic. Windscreen damage will only lead to a MOT rejection if it concerns a chip with a diameter of at least 20 millimetres or a branched crack in the field of vision of the driver. In such cases, a windscreen replacement must be carried out before the next inspection. If the field of vision is reduced to such an extent that you have little visibility, then of course the windscreen must be replaced immediately.
Do you return to the car and one of the side windows has been smashed by a vandal or burglar? Then it should always be replaced immediately. This is because side windows (and most rear windows) are made of tempered glass that shatters instantly in the event of window damage.
You can always come to us for the best value for money, no matter what kind of window you need replaced or what model of car you drive. If you want to know what a car window costs, just select the make and model of car you have and you will see the prices immediately. Our prices are much lower than the prices your dealer charges and that has to do with the absence of the brand logo in our after market car windows.
