Herxen, Rural hamlet in Olst-Wijhe, Netherlands.
Herxen comprises scattered farmhouses and residential buildings spread across the agricultural landscape of Overijssel province, near the eastern border of the Netherlands.
The settlement emerged during the agricultural expansion of Overijssel, when farmers established permanent residences to cultivate the fertile soil along regional trade routes.
The residents maintain strong community bonds through regular gatherings, agricultural traditions, and seasonal celebrations that reflect the rural heritage of the region.
Visitors can reach Herxen by regional bus services from Olst-Wijhe, with several walking and cycling paths connecting the hamlet to neighboring settlements.
The hamlet operates without a central gathering point like a church or marketplace, reflecting the traditional Dutch buurtschap settlement pattern.
