Peel, Netherlands
De Peel is a region in the southeast of the Netherlands that straddles the border between the provinces of North Brabant and Limburg. The region is best known for the extraction of peat for fuel, which had been going on since the Middle Ages but is no longer done. For this purpose many canals were dug to remove the water and for ships to move out the peat. An area that has remained partly untouched by the peat-cutting was turned into a National Park, the Groote Peel. It has a size of 13.4 km².
