Tips

The burial mounds on the Regte Heide date from the Bronze Age (around 1750 BC). One burial mound has a ring wall with a dry ditch. Burial mounds were used as burial places. It is suspected that these mounds were not only used to give the dead a final resting place, but also for veneration.

The burial mounds in this nature reserve were first excavated in 1935 and then reconstructed. The pole wreaths that were known from the excavations were restored around 5 burial mounds. Visit the Heemkundemuseum in Goirle for extensive information about the burial mounds.
