Padvinders Buiten Centrum (PBC) Austerlitz is a large scout centre in the woods around the dutch village Austerlitz in the Utrecht Hill Ridge (dutch; Utrechtse Heuvelrug). The PBC Austerlitz is located on this site since 1984. Between 1949 and 1984 it was located 700 meters (765 yd) to the east-northeast. The terrain had to move because the province and the ‘State Forest Management’ decided that the woods of Austerlitz should become a silent area. Because the drinking water quality was declining the move was not a very big issue.
Usage
