Sint Geertruid

Sint Geertruid (Limburgish: Se-Gietere) is a village in the Dutch province of Limburg.

In the middle of the 13th an outpost of the Cistercian monastery Hocht was founded and the area was cultivated.

It was modified and extended several times throughout its history and restored between 1956 and 1957.

[5] Part of the Sint Geertruid population centre in the Eijsden-Margraten municipality are also the separately situated townships of: Bruisterbosch, Herkenrade, Libeek and Moerslag.

[5] A significant part of the "Savelsbos" hill side forest[7] is situated in the outlying area of Sint Geertruid.
