Municipality of 's-Hertogenbosch
The municipality of ‘s-Hertogenbosch is a local authority in the province of Brabant, the Netherlands. ‘s-Hertogenbosch is the provincial capital of Brabant with 130,000 residents. The city is over 800 years old. Den Bosch is also the home town of the famous painter Hieronymos Bosch It is an active city, that owes its present to its past. The city cherishes that past, its breathtaking Gothic St. John’s Cathedral, the authentic river De Binnendieze that flows through the city and the old city walls. From the time it was founded, in the twelfth century, ’s-Hertogenbosch was the most important fortress on the border of the northern and southern Netherlands and proved to be impregnable and unconquerable for centuries. 
Things took a different turn in the seventeenth century, but the strength of the city's fortifications remained undiminished. A lot of the features of ’s-Hertogenbosch reflect this and will continue to do so in the future. 's-Hertogenbosch is the leading financial centre for the southern part of the Netherlands. Several banking, accountancy, and consultancy headquarters are established here. The economic forecasts shows a growth for the sectors of the provision of business services, ICT, and the wholesale trade.
