Odiliapeel (Brabantian: De Piejel) is a village in the Netherlands. It is situated in the northeast corner of the province of North Brabant, south of Volkel Air Base. It used to be part of the municipality of Uden, but merged into the municipality of Maashorst in 2022.
Odiliapeel was founded in 1921 as a heath excavation settlement. On 5 May 1930, it was officially named Odiliapeel, and is a combination of Odile of Alsace and the region Peel. The initial excavation of the area started in 1908, however a government subsidy plan led to the systematic exploration of the area. The village was designed by Heidemij (nowadays: Arcadis).
