Description

The village originated around the lock in the Grecht, built in 1448, which was called the Woerdense Verlaat. The buildings grew in two regions: Holland and Utrecht. The Dutch part, located west of the Grecht and south of the Kollenwetering, fell under the Nieuwkoop court.

The Utrecht part north of the Kollenwetering and around the meent was part of the Wilnis court, while the southern part belonged to the Kamerik court. After 1813, the courts were transformed into municipalities and Woerdense Verlaat remained divided into three municipalities.

Only on 1 January 1989, after a municipal reorganization, Woerdense Verlaat, together with an illogically large part of Kamerik, was added to the municipality of Nieuwkoop.
