The Manifesto of the People of Brabant (French: Manifeste du peuple brabançon, Dutch: Manifest van het Brabantse Volk) was a document made public at the start of the Brabant Revolution in 1789 proclaiming the end of the domination of the House of Austria over the Duchy of Brabant.
In October 1789, the leader of the "Statists", Henri Van der Noot and the general Jean-André van der Meersch led a small army of patriots from the Dutch Republic where they had been in exile into the Duchy of Brabant, then under Austrian rule.
The first significant town liberated was Hoogstraten and it was there that van der Noot made the declaration public to his army.
The manifesto was first read on 24 October 1789 in the town of Hoogstraten, though it had been published on the previous day by the Committee of Breda.
The declaration led, in January 1790, to the establishment of the United Belgian States.
