'''Luyksgestel'''
==History==
It was first mentioned in 1343 as Gastel, and means "guest house". Luik (French: Liège) has been added to distinguish from [[Moergestel]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://etymologiebank.nl/trefwoord/luyksgestel |title=Luykgestel |website=Etymologiebank |access-date=15 April 2022 |language=nl}}</ref>
For centuries, Luyksgestel was a part of the territories of the [[Southern Netherlands]] (present-day Belgium and surroundings). Until the French revolution it was an exclave of the [[Bishopric of Liège]]. Subsequently, until 1819, it belonged to the United kingdom of the Netherlands' province of [[Antwerp (province)|Antwerp]], and only then it was transferred to where it currently belongs: the province of North Brabant, in exchange for [[Lommel]], a neighbouring Brabantian town that was put into the [[Province of Limburg (1815–39)|province of Limburg]]. Luyksgestel was a separate municipality until 1997, when it became part of the municipality [[Bergeijk]].<ref>{{Repertorium Nederlandse Gemeenten}}</ref>
