The Brabant dialect is still very much alive in Lieshout

Skottelslet, skôn and Houdoe. These are just a few of the best-known Brabant words from our beautiful dialect. As unfortunate as it is, it is less and less spoken. But at the Brabants Dialectenfestival in Liessent, or Lieshout, you can sing along enthusiastically for a weekend and listen to the most beautiful Brabant songs, poems and stories.
