Spitsheffingen

Spitsheffingen is a small, fictional municipality and village in the rural Low Countries. It is described as lying in a flat, agricultural landscape near a meandering river and surrounded by fields, orchards, and a few copses. The area covers about 6.4 square kilometers and sits close to sea level, with a temperate maritime climate.

Spitsheffingen is first mentioned in historical records from the 17th century, when a church and a windmill anchored the community. The settlement grew through the 18th and 19th centuries as markets and small crafts developed. In the 20th century it became part of a larger municipal district, while preserving a distinct village center.

As of recent estimates, Spitsheffingen has around 1,200 residents, yielding a low-density population and a community-oriented rhythm of life. The economy is primarily agricultural, supplemented by local services, small manufacturing, and rural tourism linked to the windmill and countryside walks.

Facilities include a primary school, a small clinic, a community hall, and a regional road connection to nearby towns. A local church, a windmill preserved as a cultural monument, and a town square anchor the village’s cultural life. The community maintains a harvest festival and a summer-weekend market, along with a regional dialect and crafts.
