Getting married in Den Bosch: Burgundian and historic

's-Hertogenbosch, simply Den Bosch to almost everyone, is the capital of Noord-Brabant and one of the oldest cities in the country. The city centre still lies within the old fortifications and has many historic buildings, narrow streets and terraces. The Sint-Janskathedraal, known to locals simply as the Sint-Jan, is the city's best-known building, with a richly decorated façade full of statues.

The town hall stands on the triangular Markt, and in the middle of the square is the statue of Jheronimus Bosch, the painter who lived and worked here. Close to the cathedral is the Parade, a spacious square that, with the Sint-Jan in the background, makes a classic setting for your first photos together.

What makes Den Bosch special is the Binnendieze: a network of canals and small rivers that runs partly beneath houses and streets. For many couples, a boat trip on the Binnendieze is an original part of the day, with the car waiting for you afterwards.

Photo spots and routes around 's-Hertogenbosch

Den Bosch has plenty of water and greenery close to the old town. Within a few minutes by car or on foot, you can go from the busy city centre to open countryside, which makes the city well suited to a varied photo shoot.

Fortifications and Bossche Broek

The old fortifications run along the south side of the city centre, with views over the Bossche Broek, a large nature reserve of meadows and water that reaches right up to the city. The ramparts and the open land behind them make a peaceful picture, with the towers of the city in the distance.

Castles in the area

Around Den Bosch there are several castles and country estates. Kasteel Maurick in Vught and Kasteel Heeswijk in Heeswijk-Dinther are well-known examples. A drive from the city to one of these castles, along Brabant lanes and through villages, suits a classic wedding car or an open convertible very well.

Planning your wedding car in Den Bosch

The city centre is largely pedestrianised, with cobblestones and narrow streets. Agree a drop-off point on the edge of the centre with the rental company and walk the last stretch to the Markt or the Sint-Jan together. A compact classic car has more freedom in and around the old town than a long American car.

Den Bosch lies on the A2 and the A59, so rental companies from all over Brabant often drive here.
