History

It was first mentioned in 1046 as Stenere, and means "stone buildings on a sandy ridge". [4] In 1217, a parish church is established. The Dutch Reformed Church has elements dating from the 14th century. In 1782, it suffered a fire after a lightning strike, and was rebuilt. The church was restored between 1966 and 1972. [5] In 1840, it was home to 486 people. [3]

The grist mill Bronkhorstermolen dates from 1844 and was restored in 1960. [5] The potato and chips factory Aviko was founded in Steenderen in 1962. In 2019, a 35 metres (115 ft) refrigerator tower was constructed, giving Steenderen three towers. [3]
