In my opinion the politics section has to be rewritten, I tried to fix some issues but it still is in a bad shape. 131.174.45.228 (talk) 11:22, 29 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Not true the Canadaian Army liberated Vught. Our unit 4th Canadian Armoured Division RCEME lived under tarpaulins tents in December 1944 and January 1945 right beside the concentration camp The people did not have a good supply of food and most soldiers helped by providing what they could from their rations and gifts from home.They still were able to have their St Nicklas parade. We moved to the Rhine area in the Netherland side in early February to clear this area for the crossing of the Rhine into Germany at Emmerich.we were heavily shelled in Kleve but had to stay put. We were in beside a factory which produced a syrup similar to Maple Syrup and it was also the first time we obtained fresh frozen tomatoes. When we returned to Holland to Tilburg to regroup we brought back cows and pigs from Germany≈99.227.92.104 (talk) 02:42, 9 April 2008 (UTC)  Ed Forsyth B56653 Canadian Army.4th Div RCEME    e-mail  fb56653@rogers.comReply


This is to announce that the municipal council of Vught has recently adopted a new flag! It can be found on their website (www.vught.nl) or obtained from news articles on the web. It can be described as follows: horizontally divided, dark blue over yellow; charged with a yellow lion rampant facing left (with red nails and tongue) on the blue stripe and a red key facing right on the yellow stripe, both placed towards the hoist. It is strongly recommended that it be uploaded and subsequently used on the wiki page of Vught municipality. Amschouten (talk) 19:25, 25 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

DePetrus/St. Peter's Church

DePetrus, a meeting place for Vught DePetrus, opened in April 2018, is intended as a meeting place in Vught. Visitors can work, read, drink coffee, follow a course, view beautiful things or do something together. The residents and volunteers at DePetrus work closely together to realize this meeting place. Below you can read how DePetrus originated and you’ll find a description of the current residents.

The origin of DePetrus DePetrus started out as 'St. Peter's Church'. This church was built between 1881 and 1884 to replace St. Pieter. The latter was a little church with a straw roof, dating from the fourteenth century. This church had grown too small and was in a bad condition. Architect was Carl Weber, from Germany. He designed the church in the 'round' Neo- Romanesque style. With an octagonal stone dome and cross arms which are rounded in a cloverleaf form. The murals were made by the Vught painter Charles Grips. The construction costs were 150,000 Dutch guilders. This amount was mainly brought together by the Vught community. --tickle me 06:33, 30 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
