Vreemde plaatsnamen in Vlaanderen

Iedereen kent wellicht ‘Kontich’ en ‘Reet’, maar in Vlaanderen hebben we nog veel meer merkwaardige, onverwachte, en vaak grappige plaatsnamen. Heb je bijvoorbeeld ooit al gehoord van Buitenland, Dikkebus, of Grote Homo?

In dit kaartje zetten we de vreemdste namen van Vlaamse gemeenten, dorpen of gehuchten voor jou op een rijtje. Veel zoekplezier!

Ontbreekt er nog een merkwaardige plaatsnaam? Laat het me dan zeker weten op koen@baryon.be.
