Bloemendaal (pronounced [ˈblumə(n)ˌdaːl] ) is a municipality and town in the Western Netherlands, in the provinceofNorth Holland. Bloemendaal is, together with Wassenaar, the wealthiest place in the Netherlands.[5] It is located just west of Haarlem, on the North Sea.

In October 2015, after persistent problems with the local governance in Bloemendaal, the King's Commissioner of North Holland, Johan Remkes, threatened to disband the municipality if the problems were not resolved within a year. Bernt Schneiders, the mayor of Haarlem, was appointed as acting mayor of Bloemendaal.[6]

Population centres[edit]

The municipality of Bloemendaal consists of the following cities, towns, villages and/or districts:

  • Bloemendaal
  • Aerdenhout
  • Bloemendaal aan Zee
  • Overveen
  • Vogelenzang
  • Local government[edit]

    The municipal council of Bloemendaal consists of 19 seats, which after 2022 were divided as follows:[7]

    Since January 2009 Bennebroek, until then a separate municipality, became a part of Bloemendaal.[8]

    Railway connections[edit]
