What is there to do and see in Tilburg, Netherlands? [SUB] Places of interest | OEPITHAI 

Tilburg, the 6th city of the Netherlands, located in the south of the province of North Brabant, is a relatively young city. The region has been inhabited for thousands of years, but from the year 1800 Tilburg only became a significant city through the textile industry. In 1871 Tilburg had no fewer than 125 wool fabric factories. You can see that in the view of the city, it has hardly any historic buildings and the factories have since been demolished. The center has many new buildings and many older buildings have been restored, such as the central station. Opposite the station you will find the Nature Museum Brabant, which is definitely worth a visit. The Central Station has recently been renovated and adapted to the modern look of its surroundings. A creative zone is being developed behind the station. Old railway buildings have been put to use for other purposes, such as a multifunctional library, restaurants, a theatre, an event location and a trade fair and conference centre. Here you will also find large parking locations to visit the center. Tilburg is a lively city with a large shopping center, many entertainment options and culture. The city also has a thriving university and there is even a rock academy at the Hogeschool. The city offers various theaters, cinemas and the famous pop stage 013. I have 4 unique sights in Tilburg for you as tips. Tip 1: The Textile Museum where you will be informed about the history of the Dutch textile industry. Fun for young and old. Tip 2: Zoo 'De Oliemeulen' where reptiles play the leading role. This small park has quite a unique collection of animals, and not just reptiles. It also offers a spacious terrace and garden where children can enjoy themselves. Tip 3: The 'Peerke Donders' pavilion is perhaps the most special of these 4 tips. An informative place about the most famous Tilburger ever. Here you will find a replica of his birthplace and a wooden chapel in Surinamese architecture. As a "museum for charity", it is the only one of its kind in the world. Photos and objects tell the story of the life of 'Peerke Donders' in Tilburg and among the lepers in Suriname. Check the current opening hours on the website prior to your visit. Tip 4: The Trappist Abbey Koningshoeven, where unique beers are brewed, among other things. This is one of the 2 monastery breweries in the Netherlands where Trappist beer is brewed. A unique experience. The brewery and the abbey can be visited. Guided tours of the brewery and the monastery can be booked on the website. There is also a monastery shop with beers, cheese, jams, honey, bread, mustard and soap. There is also a cozy tasting room where you can enjoy a snack and a drink.
