Summary

Documentary about Sittard.

The documentary shows the most important buildings, monuments, streets, squares, and waterways of Sittard. What catches the eye are the many churches and other Catholic buildings. We also see the St. Rosa Chapel, a famous destination for pilgrims, but also infamous as a meeting-place for the ‘Buckriders’, a notorious gang of robbers who plagued South Limburg in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
