Beers, North Brabant

Beers (Brabants: Bèèrs) is a village in the former Dutch municipality of Cuijk.

Beers has a population of about 1,721, of which 1,305 reside in the village itself, and 416 in the surrounding countryside, including the hamlets De Plaats and Dommelsvoort.

[4] The name Beers might come from bere or baren, which can mean mud or stuff in Dutch.

This vassal however, did own a small castle surrounded by a moat, named De Broekhof.

Around 1814, at the end of the French age and at the beginning of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Beers became a separate municipality.
