Digitization library

In recent years, a team of enthusiastic volunteers has worked hard to digitize the library of our Heemkundige Studiekring. Three quarters of the work has already been digitized. Some of the volunteers have now stopped this activity, and we are therefore looking for reinforcements. Can you work on a computer (think of scanning books and working in Windows programs such as Word) and are you interested in your living environment and how it is now? Then come and help digitize the last piece of our archive. Together with us, you ensure that we can digitally record all information forever and make it easily accessible for interested parties and members of our study circle. Our archive is located in our own Heem room in the Kempenmuseum on the Kapelweg. The place to gain more knowledge about the history of the municipality of Eersel and the surrounding area from prehistoric times to the present, viewed from as many points of view as possible. From archeology to family history and from language and dialect to flora and fauna. This volunteer work is for young and older people. You can join our Study Circle, but you don't have to. You can also support us temporarily. Do you like volunteer work or do you feel like a nice and interesting internship, where you will of course be well supervised? Please contact Frans of our Heemkundige Study Circle De Acht ZalINGEN.

Member of the archaeological study group

: Weekly · 1 to 2 hours
: Heemkundige Studiekring "De Acht Zaligheden"

Are you interested in the history of our villages? Want to learn more about how the land was used in the past? How people lived there and what historical remains of the activities of our former inhabitants can still be found in the soil? Then becoming a member of the archeology working group of HSK De Acht Zaligheden might be something for you! Archaeological research is regularly required during new construction and excavation work, because there are many historical remains in the soil in our municipality. To prevent the information from this soil archive from being lost unnoticed, it is important to document this through an archaeological investigation. This way, this information will also be accessible in the future to other researchers and to our posterity. We attach great importance to that. A special working group has therefore been set up that could still use reinforcement. Interest and commitment are more important than experience. If you would like to know more about the activities of this working group, please contact Winfried from the HSK De Acht Zaligheden. This can be done directly, via the link above and via the support center.

Wanted! Chairman HSK the Eight Beatitudes

: Weekly · 2 to 3 hours
: Heemkundige Studiekring "De Acht Zaligheden"

Chairman of the Local History Study Circle De Acht Zaligheden Eersel Chairmanship of the circle is a coordinating and guiding function towards members and working groups. You do not have to be a local history expert, just an interest in the local history of Steensel, Duizel and Eersel. The time spent is difficult to determine and often depends on the person who fulfills the function. If there is sufficient curiosity about the history of Eersel and the surrounding area, the time spent can be considerable, but initially one should focus on: - Attending the board meeting every 3rd Thursday of the month - Managing the lecture evening every 2nd Tuesday of the month - Visiting the meeting of Brabants Heem twice a year - Visiting the meeting of the Kempen/Peel circles twice a year - Contacting the municipal policy officer for Culture-History, Archaeology and Architecture of the municipality of Eersel. Optional and the content of this can still be discussed in consultation with the current chairman and the other active members of the circle: - Be present when the local history room is open on Monday afternoon between 13:30 and 16:30. This is not mandatory, but can be very useful for you. - Participate in consultation rounds of the Archeology Group with the alderman and policy officer of the municipality of Eersel (4x per year). The current chairman wants to remain a member of the board for a few years to be on standby for the new chairman in order to support the new chairman as much as possible. For the current chairman, who was also not a local historian when he took office, this method of transfer worked very well at the time. In short, it is up to the candidate himself whether it will be an extensive or limited use of time. For further contact, an appointment can be made with the current chairman Frans Teunis via email [email address hidden]
