Comments:

The plaques indicate the carnivals of Breda, carnivals that are held once a year, and during the carnival that lasts for 4 days, the city is called Kielegat, and control over the city passes from the mayor to the "prince of the festival". The carnival is an old Catholic custom that started back in 1707. Each year the motto of the carnival is chosen.

BCV - Breda Carnival Association

The current plaque indicates the 7th anniversary of the management of the carnival by BCV (anniversaries in the carnival are counted in multiples of 11 years, as well as the number of members in the carnival council and more)
