The Club Golden Gate is located in Grefrath on the southern edge of the town centre.
The town of Grefrath belongs to the Viersen district and lies in the west of NRW in the Maas-Schwalm-Nette nature park, not far from the border with the Netherlands. Nearby towns are Kempen, 7 kilometres away, Viersen, 12 kilometres away, and Krefeld, 16 kilometres away. Thanks to the excellent motorway connections, you can reach the Dutch city of Venlo from Grefrath in just a few minutes by car. The major cities of the Ruhr area are also within easy reach. Via the A40 and A61 motorways, Grefrath is linked to the Ruhr area and the Rhineland. The Dutch motorway link A74, completed only a few years ago, connects the municipality via the A61 to the A73, which runs through the Netherlands. The A40 also crosses the Dutch border, where it becomes the A67.
Grefrath in NRW has no railway station of its own; the nearest main stations are in Viersen, Kempen and Krefeld. However, the town is connected to its neighbouring municipalities by numerous public bus lines. For example, line 019 runs from the central Bergerplatz to Mönchengladbach, and line 078 to Geldern. Line SB 87 takes you from Grefrath to Viersen or Kempen, and line 093 runs via Grefrath between Kaldenkirchen and Kempen.
Grefrath's name is first mentioned in the 12th century. Historically, it belonged to the Duchy of Geldern, later to the Spanish Netherlands. In 1713, Spanish Geldern fell to Prussia under the Treaty of Utrecht; in 1794 it was incorporated into French territory by Napoleon; in 1815 Grefrath came under Prussian rule once again. Grefrath includes the districts of Grefrath, Vinkrath, Mülhausen, and, since 1 January 1970, the formerly independent municipality of Oedt.
Grefrath officially holds the title of Sports and Leisure Municipality. The Niers, which flows through the town, creates a small natural paradise ideal for hiking and cycling trips as well as boat and canoe tours. The town's sports-oriented infrastructure also includes a sports airfield. Sights in the town and surrounding area include the ruins of Burg Uda, the landmark of Oedt, the Dorenburg on the grounds of the Lower Rhine Open-Air Museum, and the historic old town centre of the neighbouring town of Kempen, 7 kilometres further east. Grefrath has two hotels, the PP-Hotel Grefrather Hof and the Hotel Haffmans. Several guesthouses are also available.
