Schrobbeler

If the idea of a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon learning about the history and production of Brabant’s most authentic herb liqueur appeals to you, then visit the Schrobbeler distillery. On an interesting tour under the proverbial smoke of Tilburg, you will learn all about this – by the producer’s own modest account – “valued atmosphere enhancer”. Introduced during Carnival in 1973, Schrobbeler has always maintained a strong link with this fun annual festival. Learn all there is to know about Schrobbeler – with the exception of the family secret of course – on one of the fun guided tours. Smile, warmth and friendship Tickets for one of the open tours at 1.30pm on Saturday or Sunday can be booked at schrobbeler.nl. Groups of fifteen people or more can also book on other days and times. And it’ll be well worth it, as confirmed by one guest: “We had a very enjoyable but also successful afternoon. The staff are friendly and were keen to tell us about the history of Schrobbeler. ''

We left the establishment with a lot more knowledge about liquor and also with happy tastebuds thanks to tasting after the private tour. The design of their bottles are esthetic and the price is reasonable. We highly recommend this activity if you are looking for an unique experience.

St. John's Cathedral

Reviewed By 329halinav - Pretoria, South Africa

One of two cathedrals in the world that has these statues on the arches, the only one where the statues look up. If you are lucky and they have the roof open in summer, do it. It is truly a sight to behold. The interior is richly decorated and the windows are breathtaking. The entrance from the market has a window that has a panel dedicated to WWII, enter and look back and up. The Maria chapel is still heavily used, with various saints along the walls. Have a look at the wood engravings all along the sides.

Noordbrabants Museum

Reviewed By Lopsock - Letchworth, United Kingdom

When we visited a lot of the permanent collection had been cleared for two temporary exhibitions - Loving Vincent (why we’d come to Den Bosch this time) and Garden of Earthly Delights. Both were fascinating and very well curated. Both also finish soon, but I would heartily recommend the museum on the basis of how these exhibitions were presented. Has a good restaurant, too, which always helps.

DAF Museum

Reviewed By O7746XIdavide - Limerick, Ireland

For all transport buffs and people who enjoy going back in time to the old days of classic vehicles, this museum is ideal. Also children will like it too as they can climb in some of the vehicles and there is a childrens area. Well worth the money in my opinion.Only sorry the bar was shut on the day I visited.

Very nice indeed to be back in Breda - which has always been my favourite City in the Nertherlands - drastically underrated. Had a walk round it, with some others - great architecture, and it always look impressive when illuminated by the Sun. Truly represents the very heart of Breda.

Breda's Begijnhof Museum

Reviewed By stephencU6786JM - Belfair, United States

The Begijnhof is a beautiful spot for a short visit. I was there during the winter, so the gardens were dormant, but I imagine it's amazing during spring and summer. It's easy to walk past and miss the gateway, but there's a lot of local information to let you know exactly where to find it. It's quiet and peaceful, and has a very interesting history going back for centuries. There's a small museum (2 Euro entry cost) with a short video available in both English and Nederlander languages. The museum shows how the Beguins lived when the Begijnhof was still active. You don't need to enter the museum just to visit the grounds, though. The grounds are open for visiting, but be aware that women do still live in the apartments, and quiet wandering is appreciated. The chapel is not open to walk into, but you can step inside the door and look through a glass partition to see it. It's quite lovely.

Jheronimus Bosch Art Center

The body of work produced by Hieronymus Bosch can be found in museums and collections across the world. But the only place to find high-quality reproductions of all of his works is the Jheronimus Bosch Art Center in the city where the late-Mediaeval painter lived and worked his whole life. Come and admire the impressive exhibition set in a magnificent church building and you'll understand one visitor's summary of the experience: "I’ve learned a lot of Jerome Bosch. He is a great, and the most creative painter ever in history. This is a museum must see." Barely a quarter of an hour's walk from the station and just five minutes from St. John's Cathedral, this original and refreshing museum is home to all of Bosch's works and more. The reproductions can be found on the ground floor, while the other floors house collections of contemporary art, all inspired by Bosch himself. You can also take the lift to the very top floor of the tower for a fantastic view over the city.
