Wineries

Wijndomein Aldeneyck

Breweries

Trappistenbrouwerij De Kievit

The name of the original small farm on which grounds the monastery Maria Toevlucht (Our Lady of Refuge) in Zundert arose was “De Kievit”, a plover bird with distinctive wispy crest. Hence the name “Trappistenbrouwerij De Kievit” and the plover that appears in the logo.
