Hagestein former municipality
On 1 Jan 1986 Vianen, Everdingen
and Hagestein merged to form the new municipality of Vianen. Hagestein
had 1.000 inhabitants, in the "Vijfheerenlanden on the Lek river, SE of
Vianen. Hagestein was the only settlement, the municipal seat was in Everdingen.
Hagestein, now part of Vianen, used to be a very rural area. Some friends
have reminiscences of a village tombola, where nearly everybody won huge
quantities of village-products, mainly agricultural and meat-stuff. Hagestein
received city-rights in the Middle Ages, but those were revoked in 1420.
Hagestein is also known for its system of locks in the Lek river.
Flag: a hoist of five horizontal stripes of white and red, and a fly
