Tilburg is the seventh largest city in the Netherlands with more than 215,000 inhabitants. In recent decades, Tilburg has welcomed people from virtually every country in Europe and far beyond, making it a delicious melting pot. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to grow and be happy in our beautiful city. The facilities are excellent; from schools, universities and hospitals, from museums to culture. With two well-known parks around the corner (Efteling and Beekse Bergen), more than 500 events a year and centrally located in Europe, Tilburg is truly the Heart of Brabant.
