Kattendijke

[3] The flood of 1134 resulted in large inundated areas around Kattendijke.

The Cistercians monks from abbey Ter Doel started to build dikes and polder the land.

[4] The Dutch Reformed church was built in 1404 on a terp (artificial hill).

Only the nave of the medieval church remains due to war and decay.

[7] The municipality also covered the village of Wilhelminadorp which contained the town hall.
