The Weeghuisje is a silent witness to the rich past of the hamlet of Viane.
This hamlet was first mentioned in 1360. A small harbour with a hamlet of ten houses and a chapel unfortunately belong to the past.
In the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, Viane was an important discharge point for agricultural products. The Coöperatieve Weegbrug association 'Onderling' in Viane (founded in 1890), had a weighbridge built with this accompanying weighing house. In it, the weighmaster could read the weight and print a weighing card.
