The name Hitland comes from the word hit. That was the name for the horses that were used as working animals at the brick factory. At Hitland we still find many horses but now at a riding school for recreation.

The oldest traces of baked bricks - actually a kind of tiles - in the low countries date from Roman times. With the Romans, the technique disappears until its revival in the Middle Ages.

The principle of making bricks is simple. Stones are formed from clay, which are first dried and then fired. Along the IJssel, baking took place in open field ovens for almost five centuries. (for more information see: hvnweb.nl/historie/data/ijsselsteenbakkerij.htm)
