'''Rijsbergen'''  a town in the municipality of [[Zundert]] in the southern [[Netherlands]].

In the town used to be an AC (Aanmeldcentrum, i.e. [[Refugee|Asylum]] Request Center).

Until 1997 Rijsbergen was an independent municipality, after which it was added to Zundert.

The skyline of Rijsbergen is dominated by the [[Gothic Revival architecture|neo-Gothic]] [[Roman Catholic Church|Roman Catholic]] church of [[Bavo|Saint Bavo]], which was built in 1918 as a replacement of a smaller fourteenth-century church.
The church is situated in the town centre and is flanked by the former town hall, which has been transformed into a museum. Furthermore, in the outskirts of Rijsbergen a successful [[Garden Centre]] can be found named: "De Bosrand". A deeply loved place by the locals. 

The countryside around Rijsbergen is dotted with eleven shrines devoted to the [[Virgin Mary]]. They were built after the [[Second World War]] as a thanksgiving for surviving the war relatively undamaged.
