History

The village was first mentioned between 1181 and 1210 as Gripeskirca, and means "(private) church of Gripe (person)". Grijpskerke is a circular church village. In 1344, a guest house was founded by the Middelburg Abbey. The Dutch Reformed church is a double-aisled church with a wooden tower between the two roofs and contains 14th century elements. The church was enlarged in 1770 and the current tower was constructed. Grijpskerke was home to 408 people in 1840. In 1997, it became part of the municipality of Veere.
