Why is Belgian National Day celebrated on 21st July?
In 1830, the southern provinces of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands rebelled against Dutch rule, forcing the Dutch out of the region and securing Belgium’s independence.
Indpendence was approved by the European powers at the London Conference of 1830-31.
On 21 July 1831, the temporary regent Erasme Louis Surlet de Chokier officially relinquished his position and Leopold of Saxe-Cobourg-Gotha, a German nobleman, was crowned the first King of Belgium.
So all that to say that Belgian National Day commemorates the formal establishment of the independent kingdom and the crowning of Leopold I.
CELEBRATE BELGIAN NATIONAL DAY DURING THE WHOLE MONTH OF JULY with our Partners offering Belgian products in Canada:
PolyBEER, McClelland Premium Imports, Belgian Chocolate Shop.
