Gijzenrooi

Gijzenrooi is a valuable small-scale agricultural cultural landscape around the Gijzenrooise Zegge. The Brabants Landschap and the municipality of Geldrop-Mierlo are the largest landowners in the area. We want to strengthen this special landscape and make it even better to experience. For this purpose the Masterplan Gijzenrooi has been drawn up together with local residents, area partners and inhabitants. The City Council adopted this Master Plan in December 2024. At this moment the recruitment of an entrepreneur who wants to make work of a beautiful and green Gijzenrooi starts.

Recruitment of entrepreneur who wants to work on a beautiful and green Gijzenrooi is progressing well

In November 2025, Geldrop-Mierlo and Brabants Landschap issued a joint call for tenders for an entrepreneur (manager/farmer) who wants to work on creating a beautiful and green Gijzenrooi. There was a lot of interest in this, and after the necessary exploratory discussions, a total of nine offers were received for a beautiful development of the area.
