    The refuge hill, which had to serve as a refuge mound during the flood or flood, and which was built after the flood disaster of 1861. Next to the hill is 'the well', a large pond.

    Kerkwijk originated in the early Middle Ages on a river ridge  that runs through the middle of the Bommelerwaard and on which Bruchem and Delwijnen are also located. This ridge originated along the river Alm, which silted up in the Bommelerwaard for 1200 years. Kerkwijk was first mentioned in writing in 1210. At right angles to this ridge, Kerkwijk is intersected by the N832.
