Chapels and monastic history give Evertsoord a tangible historical connection, while travel interests range from golf to landscape and cycling. If you are looking for accommodation, you can first decide whether village history, a round of golf or outdoor activities should be the main focus. These themes offer different ways to shape your stay.

Golf as a Travel Highlight

De Peelse Golf has an 18-hole championship course and a 9-hole par-3 course. This gives you two different formats to choose from: an 18-hole championship course and a nine-hole par-3 course. Club members, guest players and interested visitors are welcome. If golf is a deciding factor in choosing your destination, check the current visitor arrangements in advance, as these may change.

Peel Landscape and Cycling

Nearby is Mariapeel, a nature reserve that is only partly accessible, with peat bogs, peat lakes and a section of woodland. The landscape thus combines bog, water and a wooded area. Cycling is permitted on some sandy paths in Mariapeel; please follow the local signs.

Another cycling option is the route “Cycling through the Peel and its villages,” which passes through Evertsoord. Check the route and its signage locally. The distinction is important for planning: the route passes through the village, while cycling in Mariapeel is permitted only on some sandy paths.

Church, Chapels and Local History

The Onze Lieve Vrouwe Onbevlekt Ontvangen church was consecrated in 1956. It was planned as a monastery church for the Paters Oblaten van de Onbevlekte Maagd Maria and was part of the “Ter Peel” monastery complex. Its function as a monastery church and its connection to the complex link the building to the area’s monastic history; 1956 marks the year it was consecrated.

The Mariakapel on Drie Kooienweg in Evertsoord was built in 1948. The construction of the Mariakapel on Paterstraat marked the official beginning of Evertsoord. The Bajescafé combines food and drink with the permanent exhibition “Detentie anno nu.” Since exhibition details may change, it is worth checking the latest information before planning a visit specifically for it.

Explore De Zwarte Plak on Foot or by Bike

The De Zwarte Plak area lies on the border of the church villages of America, Evertsoord and Kronenberg. Residents and tourists can explore it on foot or by bicycle. On De Zwarte Plakheide stands the Kamiël van de Piël, a landmark that tells the story of the adjoining area. This adds a specific historical connection to exploring the landscape.

A Possible Reason to Visit

Evertsoord Day is considered the village’s annual highlight; confirm whether it will take place in the year of your trip. If you would like to plan your trip around this event, check the dates for your travel year.
