Aagtekerke (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈaːxtəˌkɛrkə]) (51°33′N 3°31′E / 51.550°N 3.517°E / 51.550; 3.517) is a village in the Dutch province of Zeeland. It is a part of the municipality of Veere, and lies about 9 km (6 mi) northwest of Middelburg.[1] In 2001, the village of Aagtekerke had 936 inhabitants. The built-up area was 22 ha (54 acres), and contained 296 residences.[2] The Aagtekerke statistical area, which includes the surrounding countryside and covers an area of 59 ha (146 acres), has a population of around 1,245.[3]

Until 1 July 1966, Aagtekerke was a separate municipality. On that date, it was merged into the municipality of Mariekerke.[4] Aagtekerke is a conservative Protestant village, located in the Dutch Bible Belt. In the 2010 municipal elections, 62 percent of the local population voted for the Reformed Political Party (SGP). The three Christian parties in the elections (the Reformed Political Party, the ChristianUnion and the Christian Democratic Appeal) gained a combined total of almost 70 percent of the votes.
