Maasbommel is a city in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is a part of the municipality of West Maas en Waal, and lies about 7 km north of Oss. It received city rights in 1312.
Maasbommel was a separate municipality until 1818, when it was merged with Appeltern.[3]
It was first mentioned in 1144 as de Bumele, and probably means "forest of trees near the Maas" as to distinguish from Zaltbommel.[4] Maasbommel was established along the river.[5] In 1312, Maasbommel received city rights and joined the Hanseatic League.[6] Even though it was granted city rights, it did not develop after the Middle Ages.[5] In the 13th century, a church built which was demolished in 1812. In 1672, French troops severely damaged the city and destroyed the Hof bij Maasbommel.[7]
In 1818, Maasbommel was no longer an independent municipality and was merged into Appeltern.[7] In 1840, it was home to 703 people.[6] The Dutch Reformed Church dates from 1842, and the Catholic Church was built between 1868 and 1869.[5]
Maasbommel is known as the place where pioneering floating amphibious houses have been built.[8][9][10][11]
