Balgoij

Balgoij or Balgoy is a village in Gelderland, Netherlands, near the river Meuse.

Until 1923, Balgoij was a separate municipality.

In 1958, the hamlet of Keent [nl] was transferred to Oss in North Brabant due to the canalisation of the Maas.

[3] The village was first mentioned in 1172 as Balgoie, and means swelling of land near water.
