== History ==
Ottergem was one of the smallest villages of the district of Dendermonde at the beginning of the 19th Century, with 155 hectares and 520 people, it was much smaller than the surrounding villages. The village was first mentioned in an official document in 1036. In this charter the emperor Koenraad II recognized the Abbey Sint-Pietersabdij in Ghent and their possessions, they spoke of "et in Bursinghem et terram in Ottringhem et terram in Flachem". Since the year 1142 they spoke of Ottergem, but the variations Ottrenghem, Ottregem and Oterghem were also known. The name is in the opinion of the historian De Smet derived from the otter (animal) but the opinion of his colleague Föstermann is that the name is derived from a personal name. Etymologically, Flemish locations ending with –gem refer to a Germanic compound with –haim, meaning ‘home’ or ‘residence’, and a derative ending with –inga. Towards the end of the 19th Century there was a water mill and an oil mill.
