Schiemond

Schiemond is a postwar neighborhood in the western part of Rotterdam, situated along the northern bank of the Nieuwe Maas.

The district is bounded to the east by the port of Schiemond, to the west by the port areas of IJselhaven, and to the north by Pelgrimsstraat and Westzeedijk. It is home to approximately 3,500 residents and consists mainly of social housing.

The Nieuwe Maas, which forms Schiemond's southern boundary, is a distributary of the Rhine flowing westward through Rotterdam for roughly 24 kilometres before joining the Oude Maas near Vlaardingen.

The waterfront location makes Schiemond a natural access point to this busy stretch of river, which is lined with harbours and industrial areas throughout its course.
