Hinnaard (Dutch: Hennaard) is a small village in Súdwest-Fryslân in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 44 in January 2017.[3]

History

The village was first mentioned in 1319 as Hernawort, and means "terp on the corner".[4] Hinnaard is a compact terp (artificial living hill) village. Even though it is small, the grietenij (predecessor of a municipality) Hennaarderadeel was named after the village, and during the late middle ages it was the location for court cases.[5]

The church was demolished around 1862. In 1870, a little bell tower has built on the cemetery. The tower has a stone which states that the building was restored in 1731, however it probably belonged to the church.[5][6] The bells are rung each day at 08:00, 12:00 and 18:00.[6]

Hinnaard was home to 84 people in 1840.[6] Before 2018, the village was part of the Littenseradiel municipality and before 1984 it belonged to Hennaarderadeel municipality.[6]
