Boxtel: Railway Junction and Nature Between Eindhoven and Den Bosch
Boxtel counts about 29,500 residents and lies in North Brabant between Eindhoven and 's-Hertogenbosch. The town has been a railway junction since the 19th century, where lines from Eindhoven, Tilburg, and 's-Hertogenbosch converge. This position made it strategically important and led to industrial development around the station area.
The Kampina nature reserve, a 1,200-hectare area of heathland, raised bog, and forest managed by Natuurmonumenten, starts directly south of the town. The Dommel river runs through the municipality. The Sint-Petrusbasiliek in the centre is a neo-Gothic church from 1852. The Boxtelsebroek wetland on the eastern edge provides a smaller nature area.
's-Hertogenbosch is about 15 kilometres north. Eindhoven lies roughly 20 kilometres south. Tilburg is approximately 25 kilometres west.
