history

Barkevelde was first mentioned in a document in 952. The exact time of the desertification cannot be given, but it is likely to be between 1340 and 1520. A church or chapel is mentioned in 1519/20. Apart from a few remains of plaster of paris, fragments of roof tiles and ceramic shards in the arable land, nothing today reminds us that there was once a village here.

The place name is made up of the defining word bark , which can mean birch , and the basic word field .

The desert Oy is located about 1 km northeast of Barkevelde .
