About Geldrop

For centuries, textile production was the main economic activity in Geldrop. In the 19th century, it had the second largest wool production centre in the country, second only afterTilburg. The textile production declined rapidly after the 1960s, however, until is was almost entirely gone in the 1970s. Today, theWeaving Museumreminds of those glory days of industry. Local authorities are now trying to stimulate the existing recreation and tourism industry further, hoping to develop it into the area's main source of income.
