Sleidinge is a village in the municipalities of Evergem in the province of East Flanders, Belgium.

[2] Sleidinge was originally located in a large heath and forest area.

The eastern part belonged to the Abbey of St. Bavo in Ghent.

The French Revolution resulted in the reunification of both parts into a single municipality.

[5] From the 1880s onwards, Sleidinge started to industrialise and contained five textile factories.
