History
Mariaheide was founded as a linear settlement along the
road from Veghel to Uden. Real population growth never
got off the ground though, and in 1907 Mariaheide still
only consisted of several farms on cultivated former
heathland. However that year, Mariaheide split off from
the St. Lambert Parish in Veghel, to form a new and Our Lady of Good Counsel Church in
separate parish, the Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish, Mariaheide
and got its own church. In 1912, the Franciscan Sisters of
the Immaculate Conception of the Holy Mother of God
from Veghel, founded the St. Nicholas Monastery in Mariaheide
Mariaheide.
