Warmond (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈʋɑrmɔnt] ⓘ) is a village and former municipality in the Western Netherlands, north of Leiden in the province of South Holland.
Warmond, which is located in an area called the "Dune and Bulb Region" (Duin- en Bollenstreek), is notable for being very affluent.
Warmond is situated on a lake system called Kagerplassen and has several marinas which make it a popular recreational area for boating and other water sports.
[1] The only known surviving copy of Joos Lambrecht Dutch-French dictionary, the Naembouck, was discovered by Wytze Hellinga in the library here shortly after it was closed.
It is also the home of Dutch author Maarten 't Hart who regularly uses the village and its inhabitants as inspiration for his novels.
