Please admins, reverse the redirection
The correct orthography is Neder-over-Heembeek. The term "Over" is definitely NOT the English preposition, it does not mean the "Heembeek" is a river !
"Over" is the Dutch adjective that means "High" and which contrast with "Neder", Dutch for "Low".
The name of the commune comes from the unification of "Neder-Heembeek" (Low-Heembeek) and "Over-Heembeek" (High-Heembeek), two old parishes into a single village. Historically, "Heembeek" was a single village. Would you write "over-Hembeek" but still "Neder-Heembeek" ???
So, admins, please reverse the current redirection from
Neder-over-Heembeek ! Delete the wrong redirection page Neder-Over-Heembeek
, so that we can rename this article correctly.
