Veldhoven

Veldhoven is a municipality in North Brabant positioned north of Eindhoven with distinct residential areas and open spaces. The town shows a blend of older village zones and modern neighborhoods that have developed over time.

The municipality formed in the 20th century from the merger of several villages into a unified settlement. The area transformed from rural land into a significant residential and employment hub due to its position near Eindhoven.
