Etten-Leur, Municipality in North Brabant, Netherlands.

Etten-Leur is a municipality in North Brabant that combines residential areas, commercial zones, and green spaces spread across its territory. The town blends rural surroundings with more developed neighborhoods, creating a mixed landscape typical of Dutch provincial areas.

The municipality was formed in 1968 from the merger of two villages, Etten and Leur, into a single administrative unit. This joining shaped the modern structure the town has today.

The town is connected to Vincent van Gogh, who opened his first studio here in 1881 and began his serious work as a painter. Visitors can still walk through the streets and countryside that the young artist sketched during his time here.

The central railway station links the town to major Dutch cities, while local buses serve all neighborhoods. Visitors can explore the town easily using public transportation or walk across different areas.

The Sint Lambertuskerk church sits at the heart of the town and displays architectural features rooted in local building methods. The building reflects the craftsmanship tradition that has been carried on in this region for generations.
