A charming municipality in North Brabant known for its rich history and beautiful landscapes.
Valkenswaard is a picturesque municipality located in the province of North Brabant, Netherlands. With a population of approximately 31,700 residents, it spans an area of 56.50 square kilometers, including a small portion of water. The municipality was formed in 1934 through the merger of Valkenswaard, Dommelen, and Borkel en Schaft. Historically, Valkenswaard was renowned for its cigar factories in the 19th and 20th centuries, with notable names like Willem II and Hofnar. While light industry still thrives in the area, Valkenswaard has evolved into a popular residential choice for commuters working in Eindhoven or Belgium. The local Dommelsche brewery, part of AB InBev, adds to the charm of this vibrant community, making it a delightful place to live and visit.
