Schijndel (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈsxɛindəl] ⓘ) is a town and former municipality in the province of North Brabant, in the south of the Netherlands.

[citation needed] On 1 January 2017 Schijndel, together with Veghel and Sint-Oedenrode, merged into a new municipality, Meierijstad, which created the largest municipality of North Brabant by land area.

Finally, in the sequel New Kids Nitro, a bitter fight rages between a group of young men and a woman from Schijndel and a group of young men from Maaskantje.

This also brought Schijndel to the attention of New Kids fans, who had previously almost exclusively traveled to Maaskantje to visit locations from the series and the films.
