Hoenzadriel is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is a part of the municipality of Maasdriel and lies about 6 km north of 's-Hertogenbosch.
It was first mentioned in 722 as Hunsetti. The etymology is unclear.[3] In 1840, it was home to 396 people. In 1939, the Dutch Reformed Church was built.[4] The church was built by the Roman Catholics, because they wanted to use the reformed church in Den Bosch and offered a church to Hoenzadriel in return.[5] In 1975, the church was decommissioned and is now a residential home.[4]
