In continuing with my plans for visting some places I don't always get to visit here in the Netherlands, I think it is time to go down to Tilburg.

As an ultimate frisbee player, I often play with people from Tilburg, including against their official team, Flying High. But I never go down there to see what this town is all about.

While I'm down there, one place I want to check out, is the Royal Palace. It isn't the protypical ancient castle, having been completed in 1849. It was mostly about King Willem II wanting to have some kind of place to hang his crown in Brabant. Of course eventually it would become town hall.

This January 27th they happen to be giving a guided tour of the palace. The tour is by reservation only, you can call this number 0628141566 to book it. The cost is 5€ and it all begins at 1pm. If I was thinking of getting down to Tilburg, this might be a good occasion.
