Overschie
Overschie is a neighborhood of Rotterdam, Netherlands, formerly a separate village with its own municipality.
The village of Overschie was located on the intersection of four rivers called "Schie": the Delftsche Schie, Schiedamsche Schie, Delfshavensche Schie, and Rotterdamsche Schie. It was a separate municipality between 1817 and 1941, when it merged with Rotterdam. Immediately after the Second World War, the construction of a large suburb was begun southeast of the village.
"Overschie" is now also the name of a deelgemeente of the city of Rotterdam, covering the former village, the neighborhood Overschie, Zestienhoven, and the countryside to the north including the hamlet Zweth.
