Ilpendam ( West Frisian Illiperdam ) is a formerly independent municipality in the province of North Holland and part of the former hogen of vrijen Heerlijkheid von Purmerland en Ilpendam . Nowadays, Ilpendam is in the municipality of Waterland .
timeline
Ilpendam was founded in the 12th century when a dike was built to protect the interior along the river De Ilp . The name of the newly founded village was subsequently borrowed from it. In 1410, Count Wilhelm VI. von Holland-Straubing for his trusted councilor, governor and financier Willem Eggert Purmerland (including Ilpendam, who is affiliated with him) with Purmerend zur vrijen en hogen heerlijkheid Purmerend en Purmerland . He and his successors carried the title Heer or Vrijheer van Purmerend en Purmerland resp. Purmerland en Ilpendam .
The glory came through the Burgraves of Montfoort (1439–1481) to the House of Egmond (1483). Between 1487 and 1603 parts of the glory made up the territory of the newly founded County of Egmond. Lamoral von Egmond , the resistance fighter , which Johann Wolfgang von Goethe processed literarily in his work Egmont , was the ruler between the years 1540 and 1568. After the treason of Egmond to the Spanish Habsburgs the entire property was confiscated. In 1582 the glory was dismembered; Purmerend and the town of Neck were spun off from the legal association of the Purmer glory and have returned to the Dutch county . Purmerland and Ilpendam remained under the administration of the Grafelijkheids Rekenkamer van de Domeinen until 1610 , who together with the Vroedschap appointed the mayors and Schepen . Between 1610 and 1618 the glory of Purmerland and Ilpendam was under the administration of the two cities of Edam and Monnickendam .
In 1618 part of the confiscated property was sold from the hands of the bankruptcy trustees of the Counts of Egmond; so the new high glory Purmerland en Ilpendam was sold to the Amsterdam patrician Volkert Overlander . With the construction of the Ilpenstein Castle not far from Ilpendam, Overlander founded a new center of splendor in 1622. Subsequently, the glory by inheritance in the possession of Frans Banning Cocq , an important Amsterdam regent , who shows himself as the central figure in Rembrandt's painting The Night Watch . From 1678 Purmerland-Ilpendam belonged to the De Graeff family from Amsterdam , which played an important cultural and political role in Holland during the Golden Age .
In the course of the Golden Age , the landscape of the so-called Purmer developed into a recreation area for the wealthy patricians and merchants of Amsterdam . Much of today's land was first achieved through soil drainage in the 17th century. The soil created in this way offers space for large-scale arable farming. Nowadays Purmerland is mainly inhabited by townspeople from nearby Amsterdam, the former smaller country houses had to give way to larger buildings. At the beginning of the 18th century, the village of Ilpendam had 380 inhabitants divided into 113 houses. By the middle of the same century, the glory of Purmerland-Ilpendam comprised 1783 acres of land.
When the Batavian Republic was proclaimed in 1795, the (Vrij) heeren van Purmerlan en Ilpendam from the De Graeff family had largely forfeited their high rights. Purmerland as the main place of glory remained the seat of an independent legal bank , a bailiff , a schout and two prisons, one civil and one criminal, until 1813 . After the founding of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands , the splendid rights were partially restored. In 1840 Ilpendam had 518 inhabitants who were spread over 97 houses; in 1851 already 770 residents in 119 houses. In 1870 Zuid-Polsbroek was sold to Dirk de Jongh. This had the significantly reduced rights of rule until 1914 (?). More recently, a ferry service has been set up between the Ilpendam and Landsmeer .
Ilpendam was an independent municipality until 1991; This year, Ilpendam and Watergang have come to the municipality of Waterland and Purmerland and Den Ilp to the municipality of Landsmeer. Today Ilpendam has 2100 residents who live in 750 houses.
Ilpendam Reformed Church
In 1408 a chapel was mentioned, which was expanded in 1446. In 1544 Ilpendam received a parish church , which was partially destroyed by the Spanish in 1674. Only a small Gothic part of the church was preserved through building work. The church organ was donated in 1728. The renovation of the church was completed in 1850 and has been in its current form since then. In the front nave there is still the 17th century gentleman's bench with the carved coat of arms of De Graeff and Sautijn . On the outside wall of the church are the grave fields of the vrijheren van Ilpendam . Today the Ilpendam Church is the church center of the Reformed Congregation Ilpendam en Watergang . The church and the pastor's house entered the list of Rijksmonumenten .
