Description

Meerkerk er en landsby og tidligere kommune i kommunen Vijfheerenlanden i den nederlandske provins Utrecht. Meerkerk ligger i den yderste østlige del af Alblasserwaard. Navnet forekommer først i et dokument fra Kapitellet af Sankt Marie i Utrecht i 1266 og 1267. Landsbyen blev grundlagt omkring år 1000 som en bosættelse. Den er sandsynligvis opkaldt efter et stykke land kaldet Meer, der lå tæt på en kirke. Kirken i Meerkerk blev bygget omkring år 1400. I 1828 brændte den ned og blev genopbygget. Omkring 1418 herskede Herrerne af Brederode over området. De styrede landet som en suveræn godhed. Mellem Brederode-familien og Van Arkels blev der nogle gange udkæmpet stridigheder, hvor Meerkerk også var involveret.
