A town hall cut in two by the border and thus located in two countries? That’s the town hall of Baarle-Hertog.

This 'Dutch church' has been the parish church of Baarle-Nassau since 1860.

The St. Salvator Chapel is popularly known as the "Chapel of Nijhoven".

The St. Bernard's Chapel of Ulicoten is an oasis of tranquillity.

The St. Rumoldus church, in Gothic style, is adorned with beautiful stained-glass windows by the famous Kempen glaziers Jan Huet and Maria van Beek.

In Zondereigen, near the Belgian-Dutch border, the "De Dodendraad" peace monument was erected in 2008.

There are no information boards yet at these 14 enclaves. You can read the information on this page.

In the centre of Baarle-Hertog-Nassau, directly opposite the border post, there is a plaque.

H7 is the smallest enclave worldwide. It’s as small as one and a half house and part of the backyards.

Enclave H18 offers the beautiful nature scenery of the brook valley of ‘t Merkske.

Enclave H17 was assigned to Belgium only in 1959. The Belgian cattle merchant Sooi Van den Eynde bought nine supposedly Dutch houses in 1953.

When in 1995 the enclave borders were finally established as official state borders, 21 residences seem to be located entirely or partly in enclave H1...

N1 is the largest Dutch counter-enclave (an enclave in an enclave belonging to another state).

H8 is the second largest Belgian enclave.

Enclave H6 is only at 11 metres and 26 centimetres distance from the main enclave H1. In the 18th century these two enclaves formed a single whole.

Of all enclaves in the world, the enclave combination H1 and H2 is the only one where two enclaves hit one another in one point!

This H1 enclave is the largest Baarlese enclave, larger than all other Baarlese enclaves combined.

The Belgian enclave H9 is completely absorbed by the premises of Royal Printing Company Em. de Jong.
