Remembering the rights of Bladella Villa

Favorite thing: Already very early the people of Bladella Villa got freedom-rights. In the dark centuries of the Middle Ages, farmers as well as craftsmen, were often "property" of a landlord. In Bladel the people got much more freedom when Karel de eenvoudige (Charles the simple) granted them by manuscript certain rights through "Dirk 1" that was the Count of Holland and also ruled over large parts of the "Kempen". A small statue reminds of that important transaction that was done in the year 922 AD.

Fondest memory: Only the fact that my father was born and raised here, as well as many of my fore fathers, makes Bladel a very special place for me.
