Albrandswaard

Albrandswaard (Dutch: [ˌɑlbrɑntsˈʋaːrt] ⓘ) is a municipality in the western Netherlands, in the province of South Holland.

The municipality of Albrandswaard consists of the villages of Poortugaal in the west and Rhoon in the east.

The name was taken from the historic municipality of Albrandswaard en Kijvelanden, which existed until 1842, when it joined Poortugaal.

Both villages have a metro station on Rotterdam Metro line D (Poortugaal station and Rhoon station), which connect them to Rotterdam and to the main railway network from Rotterdam Centraal in the east, and to Hoogvliet and Spijkenisse in the west.
