On page 91 of
the book "Den
hofstadt toe
Vaerloeberch"
you will find
the council
decision
concerning the
names of the new
streets in the
district Veltum.
As a token of
appreciation for
all the work he
did for the
benefit of the
Veltums chapel,
a street was
named after
Chris Vollenberg:
the
Vollenbergstreet.

Mr. van
Rijswijk,
chairman of the
village council
of Veulen,
announced at the
reunion on 29th
of November
1998, that there
would be a
naming of a new
street. Advised
by the village
council and the
society of folk
culture Venray,
the council
chose the name
Voerleberg. The
old way of
writing with "ae"
was changed
because of the
present written
and spoken
language. The
name Voerleberg
pronounces
better at the
typical sound of
Veulen in
dialect. The
Voerleberg is
situated on a
few meters from
the original
"Volleberg plâts".

Underneath the
street plan of
Veulen, here you
see the new
street name.
