Ysselsteyn

The peeldorp Ysselsteyn originated on a reclamation of wasteland and owes its name to the then minister of agriculture: Hendrik Albert van Ysselsteyn. The many heathlands made Ysselsteyn the ideal area for farmers with sheep from Venray and surrounding villages. From St Joseph's Day (19 March) until the first Sunday in October, the Rosary Sunday, the sheep stayed in the Peel. With the establishment of the sheep company (1826), sheep keeping and the sheep trade contributed to the incomes of the region's farmers.
