2024 will mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of North Brabant. To mark the occasion, walking association WIEGO in cooperation with the Maczek Memorial Breda is organising a walk from Baarle Nassau/Hertog via Alphen and Gilze/Prinsenbosch to Breda on Saturday 21 September 2024 under the name: Maczek's Liberation Walk Baarle-Breda.

General Maczek and his 1st Polish Armoured Division liberated North Brabant with the Allies in 1944. The walk follows the route taken by Polish liberators through the woods between Baarle and Breda during the liberation of North Brabant in October 1944. The march passes several war memorials and, for the long distances, also visits the AZC Gilze.
