Tereijken, buurtschap Gemert

The core of the hamlet of Tereijken currently consists of about six farms and residential houses. The hamlet originated from a single farmstead, already mentioned in 1386.

The farmstead Ter Eijken was then owned by the Gemert Commandery of the Teutonic Order and was rented out. On St. George's Day of 1391, the Ter Eijken property was hereditarily leased to Amelis Jan Maaszoon and thus came into private ownership.

The Ter Eijken farmstead was split into several separate farms by successive inheritances. In 1716 there were 5 houses, all located on the north side of the road. It was not until the nineteenth century that construction occurred on the south side of Tereijken, but the number of houses hardly grew in recent centuries.
