Belgium’s most famous calendar

Ever since 1915, The Druivelaar calendar has been a modest monument, a fixed feature in just about every interior in Flanders and beyond. The concept is simple: the front of every tear-off page shows the date and details like the patron saints and the current moon phase. On the back side, quirky quotes and titbits of traditional wisdom are happy to entertain. It is precisely because of this long-standing tradition that this tear-off calendar is as popular today as ever.

The name of The Druivelaar — Dutch for ‘vine’ — was coined by its inventor, who enjoyed tending to his vineyard and hoped his readers would find just as much joy in tearing off sheet after sheet, day after day as he did picking his grapes.

This monumental tear-off calendar is also available digitally in the app store, and in several large sizes in print.

The Big Druivelaar

Personalized ‘Druivelaar’

I thought that "De Druivelaar" was like the little gnome in the movie "le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain. He enjoys world travel, and brings simple joy to where he lives! Bravo to the editorial staff, to the commercial staff, to the hundreds of people who have worked on it for years.

Today (December 1), on the other side of the Druivelaar leaf , there is a peculiar sum of Leibniz's additions. I am a teacher of mathematics and I have spoken about this in one of my classes today. It inspired one of my students to make a similar sum.

I just want to say that I think the great war is a fantastic part of Den Druivelaer. I hope that there will be a similar section in the coming years. An important part of our history of which I know far too little.

I would like to thank the company in this way: it is much more than a piece of paper that reminds me of the date (I can also read it on my watch). The childhood memories it keeps reminding me of the Druivelaar in my grandparents and even great-grandparents' small dwellings. This small calendar brings it all back...

This will be an unsurpassed gift for your grandfather (last year I made one for my father myself - a great success, a year long!
