Between 1831 and 1837, David was director of the Pitzemburg College in Mechelen. From 1834, he held the chair of Language and Literature, and from 1836, the chair of Dutch History at the Catholic University of Leuven. There, he was committed to promoting Dutch (Flemish) literature. In 1864, he became a member of the Spelling Commission, which officially recognized the unity of language in Flanders and the Netherlands. He contributed to the Groot Woordenboek der Nederlandsche Taal (Great Dictionary of the Dutch Language).

Already in the initial plans of 1831, a railway line from Antwerp to Germany was to run via Lier. However, later routes diverted this connection via Mechelen or Grobbendonk and Herentals, much to the displeasure of the Lier city council, which considered the city the obvious gateway to the Kempen region. There was also a long dispute as to whether the line from Lier would be better to run to Kontich or Duffel. The rail connection became concrete when a concession for a Lier-Turnhout railway line was approved by law on May 1, 1853. The first trains ran on the Kontich-Herentals line in mid-March 1855, and the official opening followed on April 19 and 23, 1855 (freight and passenger services respectively).

It's wonderful to put aside my worries for a while!

The Holy Cross parish is one of the youngest parishes in Lier. The Holy Cross chaplaincy was established in 1938 and became an independent parish in 1952. Construction of a chapel began in 1939. The chapel was designed by architect Gust Careels in a Neo-Romanesque style. After the Holy Cross was recognized as an independent parish, the chapel of the Holy Cross became a proper parish church. The church is owned by the self-funded churchwardenship of the Holy Cross. The church will remain for worship services in the future.

Tony (Anton) Bergmann (June 29, 1835, Lier - January 21, 1874, Lier), Flemish writer and lawyer. Anton "Tony" Bergmann was born in Lier in 1835, the son of the later liberal mayor George Bergman. He attended primary school in his native city. He also attended the lower Latin classes at the Lier city college. In 1849, he took a seat on the benches of the municipal atheneum in Ghent. Even then, he emerged as a great lover of Dutch literature. Together with Julius Vuylsteke, among others, he was a member of the romantic-Flemish Taalminnend Studentengenootschap 't Zal wel gaan (Language-loving Student Society 't Zal wel gaan), an association that aimed to promote Dutch literature and defend the Dutch language. During his short life, the liberal-Flemish Bergmann was an active participant in Dutch Language Congresses and a member of numerous associations, including the Willemsfonds. He founded the weekly magazine De Lierenaar. By Royal Decree of June 17, 1857, Mr. Anton Bergmann was awarded the five-yearly Prize for Dutch Literature for the period 1870-1874.

The station dates from 1861 and was built in the neoclassical style based on a design by A. Payen. The station has been renovated several times. Its appearance was altered several times, first by a large telephone mast on the roof (from around 1900 to around 1935), in the second half of the 20th century with the replacement of the glass canopy with a solid one, and by the masts added during the electrification of railway lines in Belgium. The building has been a protected monument since 1995. Source: Wikipedia
