Land van Cuijk, Municipality in North Brabant, Netherlands.
Land van Cuijk is a municipality in North Brabant that extends across farmland, forests, and waterways along the Meuse River. The territory contains several towns and villages that form distinct settlements within the broader region.
The municipality was created on January 1, 2022, by merging five separate local authorities: Boxmeer, Cuijk, Grave, Mill en Sint Hubert, and Sint Anthonis. This consolidation joined long-established administrative areas into one unified structure.
The region displays old churches, windmills, and buildings that reflect traditional Dutch construction methods. These structures shape the character of the villages and speak to centuries of settlement.
The municipality has direct rail links to Nijmegen and Venlo with regular bus services between its towns. Visitors can easily explore the villages and natural areas by public transport or bicycle.
Archaeological digs near Cuijk uncovered remains of a Roman bridge that crossed the Meuse during the 4th century. This discovery shows the area served as an important crossing point in ancient times.
