== History == The village was first mention in 1936 as Vogelwaarde, and is a combination of "land on water" and the stream Vogel. The village was formed in 1970 from the former villages Boschkapelle and Stoppeldijk. Both villages were located in the Stoppeldijkpolder. In 1645, the Boschkapelle, a chapel, was built which became a site of pilgrimage for the Martyrs of Gorkum in 1761.
