Due to mismanagement of the municipal administration, the town hall has been torn down in 2010 as part of a ambitious plan tot build a lively new town centre. Today still no funds are found to rebuild the centre. The council is now located in an existing building as a stopgap. Kaatsheuvel is (internationally) well known for the Efteling theme park.
