Roosendaal (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈroːzə(n)ˌdaːl] ⓘ) is both a city and a municipality in the southern Netherlands, in the province of North Brabant.
Under King Louis Bonaparte of the Kingdom of Holland, Roosendaal received city rights in 1809.
During the German occupation (World War II), the occupiers operated a subcamp of the Herzogenbusch concentration camp for Jews in the city.
The city serves as a regional railway hub: the Zwolle-Roosendaal Intercity service starts and ends here, the IC from Amsterdam to Vlissingen (Flushing) stops at the station, as did the international Intercity train from Amsterdam to Brussels until 2018, when that train was rerouted via Breda and the HSL-Zuid.
