Tilburg had grown enormously in the late 19th century due to its textile industry, especially woollen fabric factories were numerous. The city was therefore called wool city. King Willem II loved coming to Tilburg and also built a palace here, which was only completed after his by.
Today’s Tilburg is a beautiful city with a lot of history. Sights include King Willem II’s memorial needle, the Kunstdoolhof, the Heikese Kerk and the Willem II monument.
