Kesteren is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland.

It is a part of the municipality of Neder-Betuwe, and lies about 8 km southwest of Wageningen.

Kesteren was a separate municipality until 2002, when it merged with Dodewaard and Echteld.

The tower of the Dutch Reformed Church dates from the 14th century.

The church was built around 1500, but was destroyed during World War II and rebuilt in 1951.
