Verrebroek

Description

Verrebroek is a village and deelgemeente in the municipality of Beveren in East Flanders, Belgium. Verrebroek was an independent municipality until 1 January 1977, when it merged with Beveren as part of the fusion of municipalities in Belgium.The village was first mentioned in 1141. The monks of the cloister of Salegem developed the region by poldering the swamplands which resulted in the village becoming one of the wealthiest in the Waasland. Warfare between Philip the Good and the inhabitants of Ghent as well as floods halted the development of the village. In 1974, the municipality was home to 1,266 people and covered an area of 15.81 square kilometres . In 1977, the municipality was merged into Beveren. In 1996, the Port of Antwerp was extended by the construction of Verrebroekdok which borders the village.
