\\\ 's Gravenmoerroute
The Langstraat - bordered in the north by the Oude Maasje and in the south by the Brabant sand plateau - is named after a road between Geertruidenberg and 's-Hertogenbosch. From the 14th century onwards, settlements arose along this road. Before the St. Elisabeth flood (1421), this region belonged to a large Dutch peat area. In the vicinity of 's Gravenmoer, the peat was not washed away by the Sint Elisabeth flood and peat was cut for a long time.
