Berkelland, Municipality in eastern Gelderland, Netherlands
Berkelland is a municipality in eastern Gelderland, Netherlands, spread across several towns and villages. The area shows a patchwork of farmland, pastures, small rivers, and residential settlements with distinct centers.
The municipality formed in 2005 by merging four former town territories: Borculo, Eibergen, Neede, and Ruurlo. The name comes from the Berkel river, which flows through the region.
Agriculture and local craftsmanship shape the character of the towns and villages throughout the region. You can see small farms, pasturelands, and the way rural and urban living mix together in daily life.
The area can be explored by car, train, or bicycle, with routes available through the rural countryside. Accommodations, restaurants, and shops are available across the various town centers.
The area has a long tradition in textile production that shaped the economy of the four towns for many decades. This industrial past left a mark on how the settlements developed and on local craftsmanship.
