Waterlandkerkje

Waterlandkerkje is a village in the Dutch province of Zeeland.

The village was first mentioned in 1740 as "de Kerk op Waterland, en doorgaans Nieuw of Klein Kerkje geheeten", and means "little church of Waterland".

The church was established around 1670 by Protestants who went to church in Waterland-Oudeman [nl] in the Spanish Netherlands (nowadays: Belgium), but who were removed by force by the Catholics.

[3] The church originally stood in Waterland-Oudeman but was moved across the border.

[4] Waterlandkerkje was a separate municipality until 1970, when it was merged with Oostburg.
