Netterden is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is located in the municipality of Oude IJsselstreek, about 5 km northeast of Emmerich am Rhein in Germany.

Netterden was a separate municipality until 1821, when it was merged with Bergh.[3] The village has a border crossing to Emmerich am Rhein. The Netterdenscher Kanal is the border canal separating both countries.

History

[edit]

It was first mentioned in 1218 as Netterthen. The etymology is unclear. The village of Nütterden is just across the border.[4] In 1840, it was home to 350 people.[5] In 2011, a little Lady chapel appeared in Netterden. It is unclear who made and placed it there.[6]
