The Nassau Monument or Baronym Monument commemorates the arrival of the German Count Engelbrecht from Nassau to the Netherlands. On the three reliefs you can see how he and his wife, eleven-year-old Johanna van Polanen from Breda, were inaugurated as Lord and Lady of Breda. With their marriage, Engelbrecht and Johanna laid the foundation for the House of Orange Nassau, our Dutch Royal House.

The monument was festively unveiled in 1905 by Queen Wilhelmina. The coats of arms of twenty municipalities around Breda are placed all around. The Lion of Nassau with royal crown, sword and coat of arms towers on top.

The well-known Dr. P.J.H. Cuypers, architect of the Rijksmuseum and Central Station in Amsterdam, among others, designed the monument.

Breda Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle of the city of Breda has an important history and is worth a good look (from a distance). It now houses the military academy and is therefore not accessible.
