Berendrecht
Berendrecht is a village in Antwerp province in Belgium. Its name means "dike of the bear", according to the area's dialect, or "dike of a man called Bear", or "passage by the marsh". But drecht or tricht means "ferry" or "crossing", and ber or bere in Indo-European means "dam", "defence against water": the resulting meaning is "river crossing at a dam". The Berendrecht Lock is the worlds largest lock, giving entrance to the Port of Antwerp.
Oorderen
Oorderen was a small Belgian village near the city of Antwerp until 1965. It was demolished because of the extension of the Port of Antwerp. The village was first mentioned in 1116 and merged into the city of Antwerp in 1927. In its place came Plant 2 of General Motors, which is today Opel Antwerp. Another part of the village was taken by the railroad yard Antwerp-North and railway station Antwerp-Harbour.
Wilmarsdonk
Wilmarsdonk was a village in Belgium, north of Antwerp, which has disappeared under the Port of Antwerp expansion. The village was first mentioned in 1155 and merged into the city of Antwerp in 1927. The village was sacrificed to the expansion of the harbor and destroyed in 1965. Only the church tower was preserved.
Hoevenen Airfield
Vliegveld Hoevenen is a small airfield between Antwerp and the Dutch border. It has a grass runway, precious little hangar space, and a bar/restaurant called Den Buynderdyck. It is home to a flying club Vliegclub Hoevenen and a parajumpers club. Located just outside Antwerp CTR, it is the aerodrome of choice for ULM flyers in this part of the country.
Zandvliet
Zandvliet is a Belgian town forming part of the Antwerp district of Berendrecht-Zandvliet-Lillo. The place dates back to 1135 when it was known as Santflit, meaning "a navigable passage through sand". In 1622 the Spaniard Ambrogio Spinola constructed a fortification with seven bastions around Zandvliet, to strengthen the defenses of Antwerp against the northern Netherlands. The project lasted six years and gave the town the appearance of a citadel.
