Cillaarshoek is a hamlet in the western Netherlands. It is located in the municipality of Hoeksche Waard, South Holland, about 15 km south of Rotterdam.
Cillaarshoek was a separate municipality between 1817 and 1832, when it became part of the municipality of Maasdam. In 1984, it became a part of the existing municipality of Strijen while the rest of the municipality of Maasdam was merged into the new municipality of Binnenmaas[1]
The Dutch Reformed church is an aisleless with a little wooden tower which was built shortly after its predecessor was demolished in 1838.
Cillaarshoek is not a statistical entity,[2] and considered part of Klaaswaal. It has place name signs, and consists of about 150 houses.[3]
