:''For the municipality with the same name in Belgium, see: Heers.'' Heers is a hamlet in the south of the municipality of Veldhoven in the province of North Brabant, the Netherlands. Most of the buildings are concentrated around a town square with trees. At this town square is a chapel from 1990 located. There is also a monument, erected in 1966 for the local agricultural consolidation project. Heers has a long history. The hamlet is mentioned in books from the Middle Ages. Also, archaeological artefacts from the Bronze Age and the Roman Empire have been unearthed near the hamlet. ==Etymology== The hamlet was named ''Herle'' in 1297, which means ''forest on higher ground''.〔Bijnen, Jacques (2005) Veldhoven, 4000 jaar geschiedenis van Oerle, Meerveldhoven, Veldhoven en Zeelst. ISBN 978-90-75783-15-5 p. 34 〕 In the fourteenth century it was also known under the names ''Heerze'' and ''Heerle'', which may refer to a sandy ridge. This would be the ridge between the Run and Gender streams.〔Coenen, Jean (2006) Veldhoven: Van Toterfout tot heden.
