Key Information

History

[edit]

The village was first mentioned in the 13th century as Humerke, and means border land of probably Huga (person).[5] Hommerts is a linear canal village. Between 1843 and 1844, the road Sneek-Lemmer was built, and the village extended towards to road.[6]

The Dutch Reformed church was built in 1876,[6] and replaces a 1741 church which in turn replaced a predecessor probably from the 12th century. The tower dates from 1985, because it was destroyed by a lightning strike.[4]

Hommerts was home to 322 people in 1840.[4] Before 2011, the village was part of the Wymbritseradiel municipality.
