Puttershoek

Puttershoek is a town and former municipality in the western Netherlands. It is located on the banks of the Oude Maas, on the island Hoeksche Waard, in the province of South Holland. On January 1, 1984, the municipality of Puttershoek was merged with several others into Binnenmaas. With 6,293 inhabitants (1 January 2005) Puttershoek was the largest settlement in the municipality of Binnenmaas until 's-Gravendeel joined Binnenmaas in 2007.
==History==
Before the St. Elizabeth's flood (1421) a township named ''Hoecke'' was located on the spot of the present-day town. The name ''Hoecke'' (meaning ''Corner'') is probably derived from the sharp angle the dike around the former Grote or Zuid-Hollandsche Waard island took here. After the St. Elizabeth's flood, the land was owned by the Lords of Putten, who loaned it to a vassal lord. The first four vassal lords of ''Hoecke'' were all named ''Pieter''. It remains unclear if the name ''Puttershoek'' is taken from Pietershoeck, or if it is a reference to the Lords of Putten.
Until the 19th century, Puttershoek was a small and remote village, where reed cutting was the main source of income. However, in 1912 a large sugar beet processing plant was built in the village, bringing not only employment and a sweet odour during fall, but also employees from the Catholic North Brabant province. A thriving Catholic community was founded in the very Protestant village, building one of only two Catholic churches on the Hoeksche Waard island. During World War II, V-1 missiles were launched from the factory by the German occupying forces. The factory was bombed, and was rebuilt after the war. At the end of 2004, the sugar mill closed its doors.〔(Waardestelling Suikerfabriek Puttershoek rapportage Erfgoedhuis (mei 2009).pdf ) 〕 Most of its buildings were demolished in 2012.
Puttershoek was partially flooded during the big North Sea flood of 1953. After the flood the dike along the Oude Maas was raised. For this, nearly half of the old town (the Weverseinde dike) was torn down between 1964 and 1966.〔(Monumenten in Nederland. Zuid-Holland ) 〕 The monumental 17th-century farm ''Rustenburg'' burnt down in 1997 and was demolished.〔(Rustenburg wordt binnenkort gesloopt ), Algemeen Dagblad 20 November 2001 〕
