Adriaan Poirters (1605-1674) was born in Oisterwijk and was a Jesuit. He was a teacher, clergyman, and poet. Poirters's best-known work is "The Mask of the World," published in 1646 and reprinted over sixty times. In 1911, a committee was formed in Oisterwijk to have a statue erected in his honor. The monument was unveiled on September 19, 1926.
