Caravan Culture

Caravan culture in the Netherlands is a unique way of life, primarily among Sinti, Roma, and Travellers, characterized by living in caravans on designated caravan sites. 

This culture, with roots in the 19th century, values ​​family ties, mobility, and independence. 

An estimated 30,000 to 40,000 people in the Netherlands live in caravans, often on designated sites. 

The culture has traditions such as music, storytelling, and a strong sense of community, but also faces challenges such as stigmatization and limited pitches. 

Municipalities often manage small caravan sites, but availability and integration remain points of contention.
