The places were times part of the duchy funds, times the duchy Jülich. , The development of these places impaired these disputes as the competition of other cities and some inundations of the Maas strongly.

At 1850 the industrialization in genuine (factory of roofing tiles) began. Susteren and genuine were to January 1945 in the Second World War of October 1944 - because of the western front, and suffered thereby large damage.

a beautiful church stands for objects of interest in Susteren in Roman style, from that 11. Century. In the environment water haven is possible on the Maas (see also: Maasbracht), and it gives something forest with Koningsbosch, where one can walk.
