Hedel (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈheːdəl]) is a town in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is a part of the municipality of Maasdriel, and lies about 7 km northwest of 's-Hertogenbosch.
Hedel was a separate municipality until 1999, when it was merged with Maasdriel.
In World War II, there were a lot of fights in Hedel, especially during the month April 1945 when the armies of the Princess Irene Brigade came to liberate the town. Hedel has a very strategic location, it lies on the border of Gelderland and North-Brabant and on the Maas. Almost the whole town of Hedel was destroyed during WWII.
Hedel has its own harbor named 't Stik. There is also an excavation of the castle of Hedel. The excavations lie in the Historic Museum in Hedel. A clock Museum and a mini-zoo with snowy owls, goats, pheasants, parrots, chickens, ducks and other animals can also be found in Hedel.
Hedel has got a Reformed and a catholic church. The reformed church was built in 1640, but it was destroyed during WWII and rebuilt in the original style several years later.
Long steady road, oh travel be kind.

And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
