Echteld is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is a part of the municipality of Neder-Betuwe, and lies about 6 km east of Tiel.

Echteld was a separate municipality between 1818 and 2002, when it was merged with Kesteren. Before 1818, the municipality was called Ochten, after a neighbouring village.[1]

History

It was first mentioned in 1395 or 1396 as Echtelt. The etymology is unknown. Around 850, it was named UUia meaning temple.[2] The Dutch Reformed Church contains elements from the 12th century or maybe earlier. The tower was built in 1835, because the previous tower had collapsed. In 1840, it was home to 280 people.[3] Echteld had a railway station on the Dordrecht to Elst railway line between 1882 and 1938. The building is now a residential home.[4]
